Vontier Surpasses 2030 Emissions Target Five Years Early, Sets New 65% Reduction Goal

Key Terms

scope 1 and 2 emissions technical

Scope 1 and 2 emissions are the greenhouse gases a company produces directly (scope 1) — for example from company-owned vehicles or factories — and the emissions tied to the energy it buys, like electricity or steam (scope 2). Think of scope 1 as the smoke from your own campfire and scope 2 as the pollution from the power plant supplying your home. Investors watch these metrics because they reveal operational carbon risk, potential regulatory or cost exposure, and reputation factors that can affect future profits.

lifecycle assessment technical

A lifecycle assessment measures the environmental impacts of a product, service or process across all stages—from raw materials and manufacture through use to disposal or recycling. Think of it as a full-suite health check for an item that quantifies energy use, emissions and waste throughout its life. Investors use it to spot risks (regulatory costs, cleanup liabilities), savings opportunities, and market advantages tied to sustainability performance.

iso 14040/14044 regulatory

ISO 14040 and ISO 14044 are international standards that set the rules for conducting a life-cycle assessment, a structured way to measure a product’s or process’s environmental footprint from “cradle to grave.” Think of them as a recipe and checklist that ensure measurements are done consistently and fairly so different companies’ claims can be compared. Investors care because LCA results influence regulatory risk, compliance, product costs, and reputation — all of which affect long-term value.

compressed natural gas (cng) technical

Compressed natural gas (CNG) is natural gas—primarily methane—stored at high pressure so it can be used as a fuel for vehicles, heating, or power generation; think of it like the same gas that cooks your stove but packed tightly like air in a pumped bicycle tire so it fits in a tank. Investors care because CNG can lower fuel costs, reduce some emissions, and drive spending on refueling stations and vehicle conversions, all of which affect operating margins and infrastructure investment decisions.

renewable natural gas (rng) technical

Renewable natural gas (RNG) is a fuel made by capturing methane released from organic waste—like landfills, farms, or wastewater—and cleaning it so it can replace conventional natural gas. Think of it as recycled gas: it turns waste into a usable energy product that can be sold, piped, or used as vehicle fuel. Investors care because RNG projects create predictable revenue streams, often qualify for subsidies or carbon credits, and reduce regulatory and market risk tied to emissions, affecting long-term cash flow and asset value.

total recordable incident rate (trir) technical

Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) is a standard safety metric that tallies work-related injuries and illnesses scaled to the equivalent of incidents per 100 full-time workers over a year, allowing firms of different sizes to be compared fairly. Investors watch TRIR because a rising rate signals higher operating risk, potential legal or compensation costs, and disruptions to productivity — like a vehicle’s increasing accident rate hinting at maintenance or safety problems that can erode value.

iso 45001 regulatory

ISO 45001 is an international standard for occupational health and safety management systems that guides organizations on identifying workplace hazards, reducing risks, complying with safety rules, and continually monitoring and improving safety performance. For investors it signals that a company has a formal, auditable system to prevent accidents, avoid fines and interruptions, and protect reputation and productivity — like a well‑rehearsed emergency plan that reduces the chance of costly surprises.

iso 14001 regulatory

ISO 14001 is an international standard that describes how an organization should set up and maintain an environmental management system — essentially a formal playbook for reducing pollution, using resources wisely, and meeting environmental rules. For investors, certification signals that a company is actively managing environmental risks and costs, which can protect cash flow, reduce fines and cleanup liabilities, and preserve reputation and access to customers and markets.

Mobility technology company publishes 2026 Sustainability Report, reduces Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 49%, achieves best-in-class safety metrics

RALEIGH, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Vontier (NYSE: VNT), a leading global provider of critical technologies and solutions to connect, manage and scale the mobility ecosystem, today released its 2026 Sustainability Report, highlighting the company's success in delivering on its mission to mobilize the future to create a better world.

Vontier publishes annual sustainability report, beating 2030 emissions target five years early.

Among the key findings: Vontier has reduced its absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 49%, surpassing its 2030 target five years ahead of schedule. The company is now setting an accelerated target of a 65% absolute reduction by 2030.

In addition to its climate achievements, Vontier reached its 2030 waste diversion goal early by diverting 91% of manufacturing site waste from landfills. The company also generated $8.4 million in operational cost savings via internal efficiency initiatives.

Vontier serves as a connective layer across the mobility economy, helping customers in convenience retail, fleet solutions and automotive repair navigate simultaneous digital and energy transitions – removing what the company calls the ‘complexity tax’ on productivity and progress.

“Vontier sits at the intersection of mobility and technology, and we use that position to help enable a multi-energy future,” said Mark Morelli, President and CEO of Vontier. “In 2025, we achieved a major milestone of reducing our Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 49%, five years ahead of our 2030 target, demonstrating what’s possible through innovation, operational efficiency and accountability. As we look ahead, we remain focused on setting ambitious goals, maintaining transparent governance practices and continuing to shape a more sustainable future for our customers and communities.”

“Reaching our 2030 emissions targets five years ahead of schedule is another incredible testament to the ingenuity and commitment of our global team,” said Katie Rowen, EVP, Chief Transformation & Operations Officer. “This step-change in our emissions wasn't traced back to a single project; it was achieved by tapping into the collective expertise of our workforce, customers and suppliers. Vontier’s next phase of growth is about scaling what works, deepening accountability and continuing to support customers through multi-energy innovations.”

Productivity at scale: Driving efficiency through VBS

Vontier's operational results were driven by the Vontier Business System (VBS), an enterprise-wide framework rooted in kaizen (continuous improvement) that turns operational complexity into frictionless performance. VBS connected employees, processes and technology to yield more than 200 completed kaizens globally in 2025:

• Greensboro campus innovations: At Vontier’s largest manufacturing facility in Greensboro, N.C., a facility maintenance team member installed timers on more than 50 exhaust fans to ensure they only operate during occupied hours.
• Accelerated capability: Vontier continued to scale its VBS Ignite career development program to compress three years of business experience into three months, enabling participants to drive immediate operational throughput improvements.

Modern mobility infrastructure: First-of-its-kind lifecycle milestones

Vontier meets customers where they are to transition legacy systems into continuous capability, deploying intelligent hardware and cloud connectivity to future-proof operations:

• Industry-first assessment: Vontier became the first company in the world to complete an end-to-end lifecycle assessment (LCA) of a fueling dispenser based on its SK700-II model. Aligned with ISO 14040/14044 standards, upgrades identified through the process will help reduce customers' Scope 1 and 2 dispenser lifecycle emissions significantly.
• Alternative fuel infrastructure: ANGI Energy advanced its commercial fleet positioning in compressed natural gas (CNG) and renewable natural gas (RNG), delivering fueling solutions that offer up to 80% lower fuel costs than diesel while reducing fleet carbon footprints.
