Arthrex, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions
In 2020, Arthrex, Inc. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 175,000 kg CO2e, primarily from gas usage, with no emissions reported from packaging. This figure represents a slight increase from 2019, when emissions were about 148,000 kg CO2e, and a decrease from 2018, which saw emissions of around 160,000 kg CO2e. Notably, the company has not disclosed specific data for Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions, nor has it set any formal reduction targets or climate pledges. Arthrex's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that the reported figures are solely from its own operations. The absence of reduction initiatives or commitments suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. As the medical device industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, Arthrex may need to consider establishing measurable targets to align with industry standards and expectations.
