Sysmex has set several climate commitments. Under its Sysmex Eco-Vision 2033, established in May 2023, the company aims for a 55% absolute reduction in Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by fiscal year 2033, against a fiscal year 2022 baseline. Furthermore, Sysmex is committed to reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from the use of sold products by 35% within the same timeframe. The company also pledges that 60% of its suppliers, by emissions covering purchased goods and services, capital goods, upstream transportation and distribution, and downstream transportation and distribution, will have science-based targets by fiscal year 2028. Sysmex has a long-term goal of achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions from its business locations by 2040. These targets are consistent with reductions required to keep warming to 1.5°C, as validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
