Cabot Corporation (NYSE: CBT) today published its 2024 Sustainability Report, which details the progress it has achieved on advancing its sustainability objectives. The report outlines Cabot’s 2023 performance toward meeting its 2025 Sustainability Goals and opportunities to further enable a more sustainable world. This report was developed in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Standards and provides information in support of Cabot's participation in the United Nations Global Compact (UNCG).

“At Cabot, sustainability is central to our purpose of creating materials that improve daily life and enable a more sustainable future,” said Sean Keohane, president and CEO. “I am incredibly proud of the collective efforts of our global team. Our progress in achieving world class safety and environmental performance, and active engagement in our communities are examples of where Cabot is making a difference. Furthermore, through our innovative chemistry, we can help solve complex sustainability challenges for our customers, communities and the world. Our accomplishments in 2023 will serve as both the foundation for our future and inspiration for the journey ahead.”

Notable key achievements in the report include:

  • Industry-Leading Safety Performance: As part of its “Drive to Zero” initiative, Cabot has set a long-term goal of achieving zero injuries at its facilities worldwide. In calendar year 2023, Cabot achieved industry-leading safety performance, with a Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) of 0.20, placing the company in the top decile of manufacturing companies.
  • 2025 Sustainability Goals: Cabot continued to make significant progress in advancing its sustainability agenda, resulting in the achievement of nine of its 2025 Sustainability Goals ahead of schedule. Furthermore, in calendar year 2023, Cabot reduced its absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 330,000 metric tons (MT) CO2e compared to calendar year 2022. Cabot has also avoided nearly a total of 600,000 MT CO2e emissions associated with the export of energy products in 2023.
