Melitta Unternehmensgruppe Bentz KG's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Melitta Unternehmensgruppe Bentz KG reported total carbon emissions of approximately 107,467,000 kg CO2e, a decrease from about 125,904,000 kg CO2e in 2021. The emissions for both years were entirely from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources, indicating that the company is actively monitoring its direct and indirect emissions from energy consumption. Despite the significant reduction in emissions, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or climate pledges from Melitta. The absence of specific initiatives or commitments suggests that while the company is making progress in reducing its carbon footprint, it may not yet have formalised long-term climate strategies or targets aligned with industry standards. Overall, Melitta's emissions data reflects a positive trend towards lower carbon emissions, but further transparency regarding future commitments would enhance its sustainability profile.
