Copeland released its second annual global impact report. The report highlights the company’s fiscal year 2025 progress across environmental sustainability, workplace safety and community impact, guided by its purpose, performance and people pillars.
The company reduced Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 20% year-over-year, advancing toward its Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi)-validated goal of a 55% absolute reduction by FY33, using FY23 as a baseline. Renewable energy procurement and onsite solar generation accounted for 58% of total global electricity use.
The company dedicated more than 4% of annual revenue to engineering, research and new product development in FY25. It also accelerated average product testing and engineering cycles by 15%, supporting faster development of sustainable solutions.
This progress supports key global trends, including the energy transition, adoption of lower-GWP and natural refrigerants and a more resilient cold chain for food and pharmaceutical products.
“True environmental impact is realized when sustainability is woven into both our daily operations and our collaborative product engineering,” said Tracy Reiter, Chief Transformation & Sustainability Officer, Copeland. “While our validated SBTi targets set our long-term trajectory, the near-term wins come from applying the rigor of the Copeland Business System to our shared value chain. Connecting our operational discipline with environmental performance allows us to deliver next-generation solutions that directly advance our customers’ efficiency goals.”
