The total for Scope 1 and 2 was around 1,857,000 kg CO2e. The company has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. However, it is important to note that KPP's emissions data is inherited from its parent company, KPP Group Holdings Co., Ltd., which may influence its overall climate strategy and commitments. KPP's emissions profile indicates a heavy reliance on Scope 3 emissions, primarily from purchased goods and services, which accounted for about 1,037,784,000 kg CO2e in 2024. This highlights the importance of addressing upstream supply chain emissions in their climate strategy. Overall, while KPP has made strides in reporting its emissions, further clarity on reduction targets and initiatives would enhance its commitment to climate action.
