In 2023, IGM Resins B.V., headquartered in the Netherlands, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 15,263,000 kg CO2e from both Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources. This marks a significant reduction from 2022, where emissions were about 28,877,000 kg CO2e for the same scopes. The company has demonstrated a commitment to improving its environmental performance, achieving a reduction of about 13,614,000 kg CO2e year-on-year. IGM Resins has disclosed emissions data for Scope 1 and Scope 2 but has not reported any emissions for Scope 3. The reported GHG emission intensity for 2023 is approximately 3,600 kg CO2e per tonne, indicating a focus on reducing emissions relative to production output. While IGM Resins had previously made commitments to near-term and long-term reduction targets, these commitments have since been removed or expired, and the company is currently not committed to a net-zero target. The absence of active reduction targets suggests a need for renewed focus on climate commitments within the chemicals sector. Overall, IGM Resins is making strides in reducing its carbon footprint, but the lack of ongoing commitments highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate strategy.
