Sustainable products and services​

Delivering sustainable products and solutions is core to our business and our growth as a global leader in smart, safe, healthy and sustainable buildings.

Deliver low carbon and energy efficient products

Aligning our carbon footprint with a 1.5°C reduction trajectory is essential. The vast majority of our scope 3 emissions come from the use of sold products. We're now leading the carbon transition with sustainable products and services across three strategic pillars: energy efficiency, low GWP refrigerants and embodied carbon.

Help customers decarbonize

Our approach to sustainability is about being green both ways — good for the bottom line and the planet. By leveraging the trifecta of efficiency, electrification and digitalization, we significantly reduce carbon emissions and operational costs for customers around the world.

Include sustainability in purchasing decisions

Suppliers play a key role in accelerating our delivery of net zero buildings. Our Supplier Sustainability Program has been assessed in detail across environment, labor and human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement. Our supplier scorecards weigh sustainability equal to cost, quality and delivery in supplier performance evaluations.

This strategy helps us achieve our science based target, as approved by the Science Based Target initiative, of a 16% reduction in scope 3 emissions from the use of sold products in 2030 from our 2017 baseline.

How we deliver sustainable Products and Services
Reduce scope 3 emissions

The use of our products represents more than 95% of our scope 3 emissions. We set a science based target to reduce these emissions and are on track to achieve this ambitious goal.

Invest in sustainable products and services

We set a goal to invest 75% of new product research and development in climate related innovation. We're exceeding this goal as we focus on delivering sustainability to our customers.

Increase sustainable revenue

Sustainable revenue in 2024 was 59% of total company revenues. Revenue from sustainable products and services continues to increase as a percentage of our total revenue.

Lead the way to sustainable markets

We're one of the first 45 companies globally to receive the Terra Carta Seal for creating "genuinely sustainable markets".

Reduce emissions. Reduce costs

We have delivered nearly 41 million metric tons in avoided CO2e for our customers. These projects are set to save more than $8.9 billion for our customers through energy and operational savings over the project terms from performance contracting projects.
