Driving Progress with our Goals
Our sustainability goals help drive our business operations. We recently set our most ambitious emissions reduction goals yet, and we’re well on our way to achieving them! Our near-term targets for Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions have been validated by the SBTi. Learn more about our science-based goals and progress.

Bold Innovation
We’re proud to design and manufacture some of the most efficient climate-control products on the market. They reduce carbon impact while consuming energy more efficiently and using refrigerants with less global warming potential (GWP). Our Product Development & Research teams are moving forward with electrification toward a net-zero carbon economy.
We provide our customers reliable and clean heating solutions while reducing our collective carbon footprint.
We participated in the U.S Department of Energy’s (DOE) Cold Climate Heat Pump Technology Challenge. LII was the first industry partner to complete the challenge. The DOE called our technology “breakthrough.” We developed a next-generation heat pump that heats homes in northern climates more effectively than today’s models.
We are committed to a globally diverse workforce built on a foundation of respect and value for people of different backgrounds, experiences and identities. Everyday, we strive to create an inclusive work environment where employees can unleash their creative talent, feel challenged and thrive. We know that a diverse and equitable workplace is key to delivering innovative products and solutions for our customers. Read more about our DEI commitments and resources
