JELD-WEN Reports Strong Progress in 2024 Sustainability Report

"Sustainability is not just a responsibility – it is a business driver," said CEO William J. Christensen. "We are proud of the strides we have made in reducing our environmental footprint and investing in our people with a continued focus on creating lasting value."

JELD-WEN has four sustainability commitments driving progress in both the short and long term. By 2030, JELD-WEN aims to ensure all wood used in production is responsibly sourced and achieve a Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) of less than 1.0. In the long term, the company is dedicated to achieving net zero Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions as well as sending zero manufacturing waste to landfills by 2050.

"We are embedding sustainability in every part of our business – from how we design products to how we operate our facilities," said Director of Global ESG Carolyn Payne. "As we lead the way in building a more sustainable future for our industry, we are proud of the momentum we have created and look forward to the continued progress ahead."
