Inolex’s new carbon reduction targets is a steadfast commitment to climate action. The company 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; staking a position on climate change is no different,” says Bradley Cook, EVP-global head of manufacturing. “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.”

Audrey Wesson, director of sustainability, adds, “Inolex is tackling climate action in the same way we take on many other innovation, market and sustainability challenges: engaging the industry and all our stakeholders, leveraging third-party standards and validation, and designing creative solutions to exponentiate our impact.”

An Actionable Carbon Reduction Roadmap

Inolex 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 disclosed its climate progress to CDP 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.

Decarbonization Commitment Approved

This year, Inolex received approval of its decarbonization commitment through SBTi. The corporate climate action organization 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. “Taking climate action means we reduce the carbon footprint of our products, create more sustainable products for consumers, and help safeguard nature, animals and communities. It’s all tied together. As a firm, there’s no better business case than ensuring a sustainable future.”
