Covia is committed to reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and increasing energy efficiency across our operations. In recent years, we have integrated data-driven analysis into our strategy, utilizing comprehensive GHG emissions assessments to pinpoint significant climate-related opportunities and risks.

In 2025, we expanded our emissions accounting to include Scope 3 emissions for the first time. Working with an external consultant, we completed a comprehensive assessment of our value-chain footprint, identifying the categories most relevant to our business and the data sources needed to support ongoing reporting. This work provides a more complete understanding of our climate impact and helps us prioritize reduction opportunities beyond our direct operations. The Scope 3 assessment also strengthens our ability to engage suppliers, transportation partners, and customers on shared decarbonization goals. With this expanded inventory, we can now report on Scope 3 emissions and incorporate these insights into our long-term strategy. Because our Scope 3 emissions of just over 6M tCO₂e account for 95% of our total greenhouse gas emissions footprint, understanding the impact of our operations both upstream and downstream is critical. We are committed to working with our suppliers and our customers to measure and reduce emissions at every step in the supply chain.
