GRI 305-6 Emissions of ozone-depleting substances (ODS)

Among ozone-depleting substances (ODS), Bracell emitted a total of 4,921.79 tCO2e in 2024, including HCFC-22 and HCFC-141b.

These substances, upon reaching the stratosphere, degrade ozone, which acts as a shield against the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Controlling these emissions is crucial to preserving life on Earth and mitigating global environmental imbalances.
