When you partner with ASP, you're joining a global effort to reduce climate impact with science-backed, actionable goals. We're committed to cutting emissions across every level of our operations and value chain, helping you meet your own sustainability objectives with confidence.
Scope 1 and 2 Emissions
Scope 1 emissions are direct emissions from sources we own or control (e.g., fuel used in our facilities). Scope 2 emissions are indirect emissions from purchased electricity we use in operations.
Scope 3 Emissions
Scope 3 emissions are all other indirect emissions that come from our supply chain, logistics, and how our products are used and disposed of.
Our Commitment:
- 50% reduction in Scope 1 & 2 GHG emissions by 2029 from 2019 levels, aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative and Paris Agreement.
Our Progress:
- Completed a full Scope 3 relevancy assessment in 2024.
- Reporting 62,633 tCO₂e Scope 3 emissions and actively engaging vendors to reduce upstream emissions.
- Restructuring post-divestment to focus on highest-impact areas.
- Emissions reduced from 1,927 tCO₂e (2019) to 1,891 tCO₂e (2024), with ongoing progress toward our 1,500 tCO₂e target.
Key Actions We've Taken:
- Energy Efficiency Upgrades
- Full conversion to LED lighting (Irvine campus completed).
- Improved air systems and decommissioned high-energy climate chambers.
- Reduced electricity usage by 3.8% with new air compressor.
- Sustainable Infrastructure
- Installed EV charging stations at Schaffhausen plant.
