Primary: Fuel switching from furnace oil/HSD to biomass briquettesData confidence — high

Boiler fuel substitution from conventional furnace oil and high-speed diesel to renewable biomass briquettes for steam generation across most sites. This is the primary driver of Scope 1 decline from 75,970 tCO2e (FY22) to 38,729 tCO2e (FY25) — a ~49% reduction.

sustainability_report p.59

Dependent: Upstream and downstream transportationData confidence — high

Scope 3 transport categories total ~44,000 tCO2e in FY 2024-25. Mitigation includes shifting from air to sea shipments where feasible, local sourcing to reduce long-haul logistics emissions, and eco-friendly reusable multi-layered cold storage packaging for one main product to reduce CO2 emissions in distribution.
