informe de sostenibilidad 2023 (Inglés)

“It is not always the case that a company’s growth strategy is also good for the planet. At Badger Meter, sustainability creates our growth opportunities by enabling our customers to be more efficient, resilient and sustainable in their water operations. In 2023, we again demonstrated the link between delivering strong financial and sustainability performance with record sales and earnings alongside lower Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emission and water intensity,” said Kenneth C. Bockhorst, Chairman, President and CEO.

• The Sustainability Report focuses on four strategic pillars – Governance, Products, Operations and People – that help define and guide sustainability-related matters at Badger Meter. Key highlights from the report include:
• Organic and acquisition-driven expansion of solutions aimed at reducing customer water and energy usage.
• An 18% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions intensity year-over-year, with a 44% reduction in intensity from the 2020 baseline.
• A 9% reduction in water usage with a corresponding 27% reduction in water intensity.
• Continued progress toward our zero-safety goal with a 32% reduction in the total case incident rate (TCIR).
• Improved employee engagement scores as measured by our third annual global survey with 93% participation.
• Initiated mental health-focused programs expanding on our holistic wellness approach.

Bockhorst concluded, “We remain steadfast in utilizing our continuous improvement approach to integrate the tenets of ESG into our business strategies and practices, consistent with how Badger Meter sets strategy, manages key business processes and evaluates progress across the business.”

Similar to prior years, the Badger Meter sustainability report is aligned with common frameworks including the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD).
