How Kossan Cut Emissions Reporting Time by 90% Across 90 Factories
Discover how Pantas helped Kossan digitise emissions tracking and achieve ESG compliance years ahead of schedule.
Kossan Rubber Industries is a publicly listed Malaysian company and one of the world’s top three rubber glove manufacturers, with a global footprint that spans over 160 countries. As a major industrial player, Kossan is focused on meeting expanding ESG disclosure demands and reducing its environmental footprint through scalable and efficient systems.
The Strategic Challenge
Kossan’s sustainability strategy faced significant limitations that risked both compliance and stakeholder confidence:
Manual, Time-Consuming Reporting: Reliance on Excel for emissions tracking across 23 subsidiaries and 20 factories created major inefficiencies and delayed ESG disclosures.
Decentralised & Inconsistent Data: The use of inconsistent formats and siloed reporting made data consolidation difficult, error-prone, and an operational burden.
Complexity in Scope 3 Tracking: Measuring supply chain emissions required engaging suppliers, many of whom lacked the necessary systems, leaving critical blind spots in their strategy.
The Pantas Solution
To dismantle Kossan's data silos and accelerate their reporting cycle, Pantas deployed a powerful suite of enterprise tools:
Centralised Automation Platform: Our customised software was configured to automate the collection, measurement, and disclosure of Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions across their entire global operation, aligning with CDP standards.
Integrated Command Dashboard: We provided a single source of truth with real-time emissions monitoring, offering unprecedented visibility across the organisation.
Supplier Engagement Module: Our platform enabled over 20% of Kossan's suppliers to easily report their own emissions, providing access to decarbonisation support and green financing opportunities.
The Transformation: From Regulatory Burden to National Leader
The partnership delivered not only regulatory alignment but a profound operational transformation, cementing Kossan's status as a sustainability leader.
90% Reduction in Reporting Time: What once took months of manual work is now automated, freeing up the sustainability team for strategic initiatives.
Compliance Achieved 2 Years Early: Kossan is now well ahead of Bursa Malaysia's ESG compliance deadline, mitigating risk and demonstrating proactive leadership.
>20% of Suppliers Actively Engaged: Activated their supply chain to begin tackling Scope 3 emissions head-on.
Recognised in the Malaysia Book of Records: The successful rollout of the BNM Greening Value Chain Programme earned them national recognition.
Pantas is a user-friendly platform that replaces Excel templates and speeds up the data collection process. An easy-to-use system out of the box!
