US personal care ingredients maker Inolex is set to roll out its carbon reduction targets in a steadfast commitment to climate action.
The Philadelphia company is committing to decarbonization formally through The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and through CDP (formerly Carbon Disclosure Project).
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.
“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,” said Audrey Wesson, director of sustainability.
“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,” she added.
“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.”
