Materials Carbon Emissions Data

Materials producers, including steel, cement, chemicals and mining, are among the most emissions-intensive companies on the planet. Process emissions and high-temperature heat make deep cuts genuinely hard, which is exactly why credible, comparable disclosure matters most in this sector.

Compare carbon emissions across Materials companies

The table ranks Materials companies by Mycelium Score, which rewards low emissions intensity within the sector, transparent reporting and third-party verification, rather than by raw totals, which would penalise the companies that report most completely. Mycelium tracks 676 companies in this sector; the top 25 are shown here.

Why materials emissions data matters

Company-level carbon data in this sector is used by procurement teams reviewing suppliers, investors assessing climate risk, and sustainability teams building Scope 3 inventories. Access to comparable, sourced disclosures makes those decisions evidence-based rather than survey-based.

Carbon emissions data methodology

Mycelium combines public company disclosures with clearly labelled modelled estimates so companies can be compared on a like for like basis. Data availability varies by company, reporting year and disclosure type. Read our methodology, data sources and glossary for the detail.

Materials carbon emissions FAQs

What are Materials carbon emissions?

Materials carbon emissions are the greenhouse gases produced by companies in this sector, reported as Scope 1 (direct operations), Scope 2 (purchased energy) and Scope 3 (the wider value chain). Mycelium brings the sector's public disclosures together so they can be searched and compared in one place.

Can I compare Materials companies by carbon emissions?

Yes. Mycelium ranks Materials companies by Mycelium Score, which reflects emissions intensity within the sector alongside transparency and verification, and each profile shows reported figures, disclosure documents and climate targets. Mycelium currently tracks 676 companies in this sector.

Where does this Materials emissions data come from?

The data comes from publicly available company disclosures such as sustainability reports and annual reports, combined with modelled estimates where reporting is incomplete. Modelled values are always labelled. See our methodology and data sources for the full picture.
