Natracare reports its first comprehensive carbon footprint (2,664 tCO2e, 99% Scope 3) but the Scope 3 calculation is internally inconsistent, missing end-of-life and downstream transport. Targets lack SBTi validation despite being labelled as such. Water and waste metrics are absent or minimal.
Natracare scores 43/100 (Below expectations) on SINK's independent climate assessment, scored from public data only. Scores are free. Companies can never pay for anything about their own score. Last verified October 2026.
That places Natracare joint 331st of 934 companies scored, and 14th of 45 in FMCG / Consumer Goods.
