Sysmex's reported carbon emissions
Sysmex Corporation, a Japanese company operating in the medical, precision and optical instruments industry, has outlined ambitious climate commitments. In the reporting year 2024 (covering fiscal year 2023), Sysmex reported a total of approximately 588.1 billion kg CO2e across Scopes 1, 2, and 3. Breaking this down, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 13.9 million kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 6.7 million kg CO2e. The majority of their reported emissions, approximately 564.2 million kg CO2e, fall under Scope 3, primarily driven by purchased goods and services (approximately 190.9 million kg CO2e) and the use of sold products (approximately 139.6 million kg CO2e). Sysmex is committed to significant emissions reductions. Their "Sysmex Eco-Vision 2033" aims for a 55% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 2033, using fiscal year 2022 as a baseline. Furthermore, they target a 35% reduction in Scope 3 emissions by the same year. Looking further ahead, Sysmex aims to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions from its business locations by 2040. The company has also set a target for 60% of its suppliers, based on emissions from purchased goods and services, capital goods, and transportation, to have science-based targets by fiscal year 2028.
