Ultra Tech Extrusions Annual GHG Report

For 03/22 through 02/23

Last year we calculated and started by posting our Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions. That report can be seen if you click on the last years report, above. This year, along with our Scope 1 and Scope 2 report, we are adding Scope 3 emissions to our report. Our Scope 3 emissions captures four categories that contribute to our highest CO2e emissions. These are as follows:

Category 1, Upstream Transportation and Distribution. In this category we are covering all of the CO2e that is generated in producing all of the compound that we purchase and use to manufacture our products. This is by very far our largest volume purchase.

Category 4, Upstream Transportation and Distribution. In this category we are covering all of the CO2e emissions generated in transporting all of the compound that we purchased to make our products.

Category 5, Waste Generated in Operations, this category covers all of the CO2e generated in processing the waste that we generate in our operation.

Category 9 Downstream Transportation and Distribution, this category covers all of the CO2e emissions that is generated in delivering our finished products to our customers. By analyzing these greenhouse gases, we will be looking at ways to do our part in reducing CO2E emissions. Our emissions are listed in Metric Tons of CO2E. CO2E emissions stands for Carbon Dioxide Equivalent. Essentially it describes the global warming potential of all of the greenhouse gases. It’s the impact of the different greenhouse gases, expressed in terms of the amount of CO2 that would result in the same amount of warming.

Our total Scope 1 emissions for the period of March 2022 through February of 2023 was 27.56 Metric Tons of CO2e emissions.

Our total Scope 2 emissions for the period of March 2022 through February of 2023 was 697.51 Metric Tons of CO2e emissions.

Our Scope 3 emissions as listed above for the period of March 2022 through February of 2023 was 2,099.52 Metric Tons of CO2e emissions.
