Our Impact

1. Upgraded goal of $60 million investment by 2030 is an extension and expansion of prior $30 million investment goal by 2027, and is thereby inclusive of the $19.8 million spend to date under our Grow the Trades program since 2023, our base year.

2. To align with our goal, we have chosen to include only Scope 3 emissions from categories 1, 4, and 11. These categories represent the most significant emissions that we can effectively reduce through our decision-making processes. The Company’s infrastructure business was divested on April 1, 2024 and therefore all metrics in this report only reflect 2024 data through that date unless otherwise noted. The infrastructure business scope 1, scope 2 market-based, scope 2 location-based, and scope 3 (categories 1, 4, and 11) emissions included in this report were 3,128, 1,500, 1,508, and 139,196 metric tons of CO₂e, respectively.

3. For the purpose of this goal, percentage “by spend” is measured against our spend with direct Tier 1 suppliers. To meet our criteria, a supplier’s target must cover Scope 1 and 2 emissions and follow a reduction trajectory over 5 to 15 years that aligns with the Paris Agreement’s “well below 2°C” pathway. Data reflects the percentage of direct suppliers, measured by spend, that have set Scope 1 and 2 emissions reduction targets that meet SBD criteria. As of the end of 2024, 30% of suppliers have approved targets. These figures are based on supplier reports and internal assessments.

4. Problematic plastics include polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and expanded polystyrene (EPS). Both are plastics commonly found in durable goods packaging.

5. Scope 1: All direct emissions from those activities under our control, stationary and mobile, including on-site fuel combustion such as gas-fire furnaces and boilers. Scope 2: Market-based Indirect emissions from electricity purchased, accounting for renewable energy credits. The Company’s infrastructure business was divested on April 1, 2024 and therefore all metrics in this report only reflect 2024 data through that date unless otherwise noted. The infrastructure business scope 1, scope 2 market-based, scope 2 location-based, and scope 3 (categories 1, 4, and 11) emissions included in this report were 3,128, 1,500, 1,508, and 139,196 metric tons of CO₂e, respectively.

6. Our Zero Waste to Landfill (ZWTL) performance includes waste reuse, recycling, and incineration, with energy recovery as part of our waste management strategy. Data represents the total number of sites achieving ZWTL status as of December 31, 2024. We have an established, internally driven ZWTL policy, along with specific achievement criteria. Our ZWTL goal applies to our manufacturing facilities and distribution centers where we have operational control.
