In 2025, Wienerberger reported its Scope 2 emissions using the market-based method and using the location-based method.a
In 2025, Wienerberger reported 2,378,575 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 Wienerberger 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, Wienerberger reported total Scope 3 emissions of 2,378,575 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
Compared to the previous year (2024), Wienerberger's Scope 3 emissions remained relatively stable, indicating that Wienerberger's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its value chain footprint.a
In 2025, Wienerberger 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 Wienerberger's Scope 3 emissions were:a
In 2025, Wienerberger reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 1,753,580 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 5,368 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 326.67 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2025, Wienerberger reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 326.67 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 3,691.08, this places the company below its industry benchmark, indicating it is more carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2025, Wienerberger ranked 4 out of 24 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
This places Wienerberger among the top performers, with one of the lowest emissions intensities relative to peers.a
In 2025, Wienerberger reported a total carbon footprint of 4,478,260 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 2.55% decrease compared to 2024, indicating progress in reducing its overall greenhouse gas output.a
The largest contributor to Wienerberger's total carbon footprint was Scope 3 emissions, accounting for 53.11% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 1 emissions at 39.16%.a
