Beyond environmental responsibility
April 30, 2025
Oshkosh Corporation is an industrial technology company with team members and products around the world. We have more than a century worth of experience dreaming, designing and developing ideas to improve lives. Our history drives us to think broadly and into the future, so we've designed our sustainability program beyond environmental responsibility. For Oshkosh, it's more than just caring for our planet — it means creating a company, a culture and a world that will thrive far into the future.
Our path to a low carbon future
We’re committed to making a lasting sustainable impact. It's a promise to our team, our customers, our end users, our stakeholders and our future. Leveraging industry-leading technology and significant investments in electrification, we've made strides in creating quiet and efficient vehicles and advancing sustainable engineering solutions. By powering innovation in our operations, product development and community engagement, we aim to foster a sustainable future while supporting everyday heroes around the world.
We adhere to four sustainability focus areas throughout our company: People First culture, product innovation, building communities and operating sustainably. These focus areas guide our leaders and team members, keeping us on track toward our goals and positioning ourselves and our stakeholders for the next 100+ years of responsible progress.
Our commitment to science-based targets
Environmental responsibility is a key part of our sustainability strategy, driving us to reduce waste to landfill, limit carbon emissions and engage team members in environmental stewardship. We’re taking a significant step forward in our sustainability journey by setting science-based targets to reduce gas emissions. We worked with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), a corporate climate action organization, to help define our emissions reduction goals based on the latest climate science.
To support this effort, we’re partnering with our suppliers to better understand and reduce supply chain emissions, and we teamed up with Manufacture 2030, a software platform that helps organizations track and cut emissions across global operations. Setting science-based targets builds on our existing strengths and reflects our commitment to a more sustainable future. We’re proud to join the global movement toward net-zero and to take bold steps toward a low-carbon economy, ensuring that we are part of driving environmental progress.
Empowering our team members to make a difference
Sustainability isn’t just a corporate initiative, it’s a shared commitment with our team members every day. We believe that real change happens when individuals are empowered to take action, which is why our People First culture actively encourages and provides opportunities for team members to give back to their communities in meaningful ways. Whether it's participating in Earth Day clean-ups, supporting volunteer efforts to protect and restore the environment or making greener choices in their daily routines, our team is the heart of our culture and making a difference in our commitment to sustainability. It's through this daily dedication that our team members and corporate initiatives shape lasting change for the environment and will help protect our planet for generations to come.
