August 03 2021 - 7:00AM
AAON, Inc. (NASDAQ: AAON), a leading manufacturer of heating and
cooling products, announced that it achieved Platinum level in the
2021 Sustainable Tulsa Scor3card verification program. This follows
up the company’s achievements of Platinum in 2020, Gold in 2019 and
Bronze in 2018. Platinum level requires completing more than 85
percent of eligible directives. The company reported on material
topics in the areas of inclusion and diversity, community
resilience, material management, energy, water, workplace health
and safety and transportation.
The company made notable progress in the areas
of energy conservation and material management in the reporting
period. In 2020, AAON successfully increased recycling rates year
over year by 19%. The company also decreased building energy usage
intensity by 4% through capital improvement projects such as adding
new energy efficient production machinery and installation of new
AAON energy efficient HVAC equipment on the production facilities.
An AAON Environmental, Social Governance (ESG) report for 2020 will
be published later this year.
“ESG is at the core of our business strategies
and corporate citizenship efforts. We are proud to participate in
the Sustainable Tulsa Scor3card program and are continuously
looking for ways to measure and improve our performance in these
areas,” said Gary Fields, CEO and President of AAON.
