In 2023, Koppert B.V., headquartered in the Netherlands, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 44,893,000 kg CO2e across all scopes. This includes 19,259,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 7,578,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. Notably, Scope 3 emissions accounted for about 44,893,000 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from business travel (18,056,000 kg CO2e) and employee commuting (42,997,000 kg CO2e). Despite the substantial emissions figures, Koppert has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. There are no reported SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets or other formal climate pledges. The absence of reduction initiatives suggests a need for further development in their sustainability strategy. Koppert's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent or related organization, indicating that these figures are independently reported. As the company continues to navigate its environmental impact, establishing clear reduction targets and initiatives will be crucial for aligning with industry standards and addressing climate change effectively.
