The 2025 disclosure of Kemira includes a breakdown across 3 of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol, matching the level of disclosure in 2024, demonstrating consistent Scope 3 emissions reporting coverage year over year.a
In 2025, Kemira reported total Scope 3 emissions of 2,437,981 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Approximately 100% of these emissions originated from upstream activities such as purchased goods and capital goods, while 0% came from downstream activities like product use, distribution, and end-of-life treatment.a
Since 2020, Kemira's Scope 3 emissions have decreased by 29.19%, reflecting a declining long-term trend in Scope 3 emissions over time.ab
Compared to the previous year (2024), Kemira's Scope 3 emissions remained relatively stable, indicating that Kemira's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its value chain footprint.a
In 2025, Kemira reported emissions for 3 out of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol.a
The limited disclosure restricts visibility into specific emission sources across the company's value chain.
In 2025, the largest contributors to Kemira's Scope 3 emissions were:a
In 2025, Kemira reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 129,379 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 3,237 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 39.97 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2025, Kemira reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 39.97 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 534.54, this places the company below its industry benchmark, indicating it is more carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2025, Kemira ranked 2 out of 25 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
This places Kemira among the top performers, with one of the lowest emissions intensities relative to peers.a
In 2025, Kemira reported a total carbon footprint of 3,016,633 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 7.85% decrease compared to 2024, indicating progress in reducing its overall greenhouse gas output.a
