Leviton announces goal to be carbon neutral by 2030

Leviton announced its goal to achieve company-wide carbon neutrality by 2030 and its ambition to achieve net-zero carbon by 2050.

The company announced its CN2030 program with the commitment to reduce its environmental impact in six focus areas: carbon, energy, waste, recycling, water, and through innovation by empowering and enabling customers to be more sustainable.

Last year Ross Goldman was appointed as Leviton’s first chief sustainability officer. He takes on this role in addition to his current role as executive vice-president and general manager of Leviton’s Network Solutions business unit.

“Every day, Leviton manufactures products that help our customers create more sustainable buildings, factories, and homes, and we are proud to formalize our company’s sustainability commitment through our CN2030 program,” said Daryoush Larizadeh, president and CEO, Leviton. “From earning factory ISO-14001 certifications to developing LED-driven energy-saving products, to recyclable packaging and much more, we have already made major strides in sustainability as a company. As chief sustainability officer, Ross will accelerate our efforts across all of Leviton.”
