Climate Goals & Targets

Environmental Challenges

• More stringent environmental regulations related to fuel, energy, and greenhouse gas emissions may negatively affect customers.
• Costs to transition to lower-emission equipment may be compounded without collaboration.
• Technological solutions may increase the complexity and cost of equipment.
• Attracting and retaining technically skilled engineers and service technicians.
• Not effectively sharing ESG values and strategy with employees.
• Stricter climate regulations affecting the food and air transport industries could lead to rising costs for customers and reduce demand for products.
• Growing importance of demonstrating progress in meeting climate-risk related objectives.
• Customers are looking to eliminate emissions from their supply chains and may move to a local sourcing/distribution model.
• Shift to climate-friendly food products would reduce demand for some primary products, but increase demand for equipment processing these products.
• Major airlines committing to carbon neutral goals increases demand for electric-powered products, but decreased demand for flights would negatively impact ground service equipment business.
• Increased water scarcity; customers operate in water-intensive industry, so there will be increased demand for water-efficient products.
• Increased insurance costs due to the higher frequency and severity of climate disasters.

Mitigation Strategies

• Plan to incorporate climate-related risks into the formal Enterprise Risk Management process in 2022.
• Goal to increase electric-powered airport ground support equipment to 30% by 2023.
