Veralto's emissions reduction targets validated by SBTi
Veralto has received Science Based Targets initiative validation for its near-term greenhouse gas reduction targets, the company said on 17 September 2026. New targets include 60% of suppliers holding a science-based target by 2030 and a 61% cut in Scope 3 emissions from use of sold products per USD value added by 2033 versus a 2024 base year. Veralto reiterated an existing target of a 54.6% reduction in combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2033 versus 2023, having already cut Scope 1+2 emissions by 22% since then.
