In 2025, Santam 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, Santam has not published a category-level breakdown of its Scope 3 emissions, limiting visibility into specific value chain sources.

Compared to the previous year (2024), Santam's Scope 2 emissions (Unspecified Calculation Method) have remained relatively stable, indicating that Santam's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its energy consumption footprint.a
In 2025, Santam reported its Scope 2 emissions using an unspecified methodology.a
In 2025, Santam reported 8,238 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 Santam includes a breakdown across 0 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, Santam reported total Scope 3 emissions of 8,238 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Since 2019, Santam's Scope 3 emissions have decreased by 11.09%, reflecting a declining long-term trend in Scope 3 emissions over time.ac
Compared to the previous year (2024), Santam's Scope 3 emissions increased by 17.48%, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing emissions across its value chain.a
In 2025, Santam reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 1,447 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 3,705 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 0.39 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2025, Santam reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 0.39 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 0.08, this places the company above its industry benchmark, indicating it is less carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2025, Santam ranked 16 out of 20 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
This places Santam among the least efficient performers, with one of the highest emissions intensities in its sector.a
In 2025, Santam reported a total carbon footprint of 15,290 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 5.59% increase compared to 2024, suggesting a rise in emissions across its operations or value chain.a
The largest contributor to Santam's total carbon footprint was Scope 3 emissions, accounting for 53.88% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 2 emissions at 36.66%.a
