Engaging with SBTi and CDP for science-based approach
PHILADELPHIA, PA, April 28, 2025 — Inolex is set to roll out its carbon reduction targets in a steadfast commitment to climate action. The company, which positions itself as fiercely independent, is committing to decarbonization formally through The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and through CDP (formerly Carbon Disclosure Project).
“As a company, we always take a science-backed approach, and staking a position on climate change is no different. We are committed to doing our part in reducing emissions to create a more sustainable future and limit global warming by the 1.5°C target,” says Bradley Cook, EVP Global Head of Manufacturing.
Audrey Wesson, Director of Sustainability, adds,
The firm is focused on a near-term actionable carbon reduction roadmap that systematically involves its leadership, global team, and extended stakeholders. To ensure its operations are on track to becoming more efficient and climate-friendly, the company is engaged with SBTi and CDP as reputable frameworks for disclosing, measuring, and tracking progress.
Inolex has been disclosing to CDP on climate progress since 2022, as a measure and transparency effort in carbon management. In 2024, for the first time disclosing as a small-to-medium-sized enterprise, Inolex earned a B, the highest available score to SMEs.
This year, Inolex also received approval of its decarbonization commitment through SBTi, a corporate climate action organization that enables companies and financial institutions worldwide to properly account for their greenhouse gas emissions. Inolex anticipates receiving validation of its near-term target through SBTi to announce its specific targets later this year.
“In addition to our carbon reduction target, we’re setting a target to engage suppliers to do the same, bringing our value chain along with us on the journey,” says Wesson.
