In 2025, Braskem completed a corporate carbon footprint assessment and publicly disclosed its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions according to the GHG Protocol, covering Scope 1 (direct emissions from owned or controlled sources), Scope 2 (indirect emissions from purchased energy) and Scope 3 (indirect emissions across the value chain).
However, Braskem has not published a category-level breakdown of its Scope 3 emissions, limiting visibility into specific value chain sources.

In 2025, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Braskem amounted to 9,438,323 metric tons of CO2 equivalent. This figure includes both direct emissions from owned or controlled sources (Scope 1) and indirect emissions from purchased energy (Scope 2).a
Compared to 2024, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Braskem decreased by 3.02%, showing that the company has made progress in taking action to reduce the climate impact of its operations.a
In 2025, the total Scope 1 emissions of Braskem were 8,826,933 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Since 2020, Braskem's Scope 1 emissions have decreased by 11.92%, reflecting a declining long-term trend in Scope 1 emissions over time.ab
Compared to the previous year (2024), Braskem's Scope 1 emissions decreased by 4.14%, highlighting the company's efforts to lower direct emissions from assets it owns or controls.a
In 2025, Braskem reported Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 611,390 tCO₂e using the market-based method.a
Since 2020, Braskem's Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (Market-Based) have decreased by 20.11%, reflecting a declining long-term trend in Scope 2 emissions over time.ab
Compared to the previous year (2024), Braskem's Scope 2 emissions (Market-Based) rose by 16.78% in 2025, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing emissions from purchased electricity and energya
In 2025, Braskem reported its Scope 2 emissions using the market-based method.a
In 2025, Braskem reported 23,349,291.7 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) of Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, representing indirect emissions across its upstream and downstream value chain.a
The 2025 disclosure of Braskem includes a breakdown across 0 of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol, down from 8 in 2024, indicating a decline in reporting granularity and reduced insight into the company's full value chain emissions.a
In 2025, Braskem reported total Scope 3 emissions of 23,349,291.7 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Compared to the previous year (2024), Braskem's Scope 3 emissions remained relatively stable, indicating that Braskem's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its value chain footprint.ab
In 2025, Braskem reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 8,826,933 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 12,871 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 685.79 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2025, Braskem reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 685.79 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 374.39, this places the company above its industry benchmark, indicating it is less carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2025, Braskem ranked 17 out of 25 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
Braskem is therefore positioned in the mid-range of its industry, neither a clear leader nor a laggard in carbon efficiency.a
In 2025, Braskem reported a total carbon footprint of 32,787,614.7 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 7.88% decrease compared to 2024, indicating progress in reducing its overall greenhouse gas output.ab
The largest contributor to Braskem's total carbon footprint was Scope 3 emissions, accounting for 71.21% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 1 emissions at 26.92%.a
