Petkim, headquartered in Turkey (TR), currently does not have publicly available data on its carbon emissions, as no specific emissions figures have been provided. Consequently, there are no reported Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions data to analyse. In the absence of concrete emissions data, it is important to note that Petkim has not outlined any specific reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of information suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy and emissions reduction initiatives. As the petrochemical industry faces increasing scrutiny regarding its environmental impact, it is crucial for companies like Petkim to establish clear climate commitments and reduction targets to align with global sustainability goals.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Petkim is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
