Headline intensities
·Values in USD ($)
Peer cohort: — · lower is betterRevenue intensity
Carbon / $m revenue
—tCO2e / $m revenue
Carbon per million dollars of revenue. The legacy industry-standard reference (CDP, MSCI). Useful for cross-sector context, but distorted by margin — high-margin firms appear artificially efficient. Read alongside the operational and asset intensities for the full picture.
—
Operational intensity
Carbon / $m OpEx
—tCO2e / $m OpEx
OpEx (operating expenditure) is the running cost of the business — staff, services, energy, materials. This shows how carbon-intensive operations are per million dollars of spend. Removes the margin distortion that revenue-based ratios introduce.
—
Economic intensity
Carbon / $m EVIC
—tCO2e / $m EVIC
EVIC (Enterprise Value Including Cash) is the firm's total capital footprint — equity + debt + cash + minority interest. The EU's standard intensity measure (SFDR PAI 3) — answers: how much carbon does each million of capital deployed in this business produce?
—
Asset intensity
Carbon / $m PP&E + leased
—tCO2e / $m PP&E
PP&E (Property, Plant & Equipment) plus leased real-estate assets is the firm's physical infrastructure on the balance sheet. This shows the carbon intensity of that physical footprint — uses Scope 1+2+3 for consistency with the other headline intensities. Surfaces stranded-asset risk for asset-heavy firms.

Strategy & approach
How the firm describes its decarbonisation approach in its own words — alongside the headline numbers above. Self-reported, page-cited.
Approach to renewable energy
Australian manufacturing sites transitioning to renewable electricity from Jan 2025
CSL is investing in renewable electricity and improving facility energy efficiency. Australian manufacturing sites will transition to renewable electricity from January 2025. Increased renewable electricity use across the CSL enterprise was the key driver of decreased Scope 2 emissions in FY24, despite production returning to pre-COVID levels.

Approach to carbon removals
No narrative on durable removals approach in the firm's most recent reports.
Primary decarbonisation levers
- Energy efficiency of manufacturing facilities
CSL is reducing direct operational emissions by improving energy efficiency of facilities and designing/building new facilities with sustainability in mind. Despite facility expansions and return to pre-COVID production levels, total Scope 1+2 emissions have remained relatively stable.
- Renewable electricity procurement
Investment in renewable electricity is a central lever, anchored by the transition of Australian manufacturing sites to renewable electricity from January 2025. This is cited as a primary driver of Scope 2 reductions.
- Refrigerant management
CSL improved data accuracy on refrigerants in FY24, which slightly increased reported Scope 1 emissions. Refrigerants are a meaningful direct-emissions lever for pharmaceutical manufacturing operations.
Dependent decarbonisation levers
- Supplier SBTi target-setting engagement
CSL has actively engaged with 71.3% of suppliers by emissions to set SBTi-aligned targets; 51.7% of suppliers (by share of FY23 Scope 3 emissions) have self-reported Scope 1&2 SBTi-aligned targets. CSL intends for suppliers accounting for 67% of Scope 3 emissions to set such targets.
