As of Dec. 31, 2022, Allegion reduced its water usage by 12% compared to our 2020 baseline year*+16. By 2030, we aim to use 20% less water than we did in 2020.
In our ESG Goals & KPIs section, you find year-over-year data for both normalized data and the actual volume of water used. While volume may vary due to factors such as production output, active hours or the number of sites we operate, normalized data allows us compare "apples-to-apples."
* Data is normalized to hours worked. To the extent actual hours worked are not available for any full-time employee, an average of 40 hours per week is used.
+ Actual data collected for manufacturing facilities and certain warehouses globally. For all other facilities, data is based on certain estimates as indicated below. From Apr. 1, 2020, through Dec. 31, 2021, a 50% reduction was applied to the below estimates for water usage and waste to landfill in office type locations to take into account the remote work environment during the COVID-19 pandemic.
1 Assumes an average of 15 gallons (or 57 liters) of water used per employee per workday.
6 Data does not include any metrics associated with the mid-year 2022 acquisition of Stanley Access Technologies.
As of Dec. 31, 2022, Allegion reduced its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions intensity by 20% compared to our 2020 baseline year*+2567. By 2030, we aim to reduce GSG emissions intensity by 25% compared to 2020.

We support the UN Sustainable Development Goal to take urgent action on climate change. Reducing GHG emissions intensity is part of Allegion's goal to achieve carbon-neutral emissions globally by 2050. Some communities need time to build necessary energy infrastructure to make this vision a reality. In the meantime, our company is pursuing incremental improvement targets, including meeting Allegion’s electricity needs with carbon-free electricity by 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality at 50% of our current sites by 2035.

2 Calculation includes all scope 1 and 2 emissions except for the company vehicle fleet. Where actual data is not collected, assumes an average of 2,000 BTU of gas usage and 0.6 Kilowatt-hours ("KwH") of electricity usage per square footage per month for warehouse locations and 2,700 BTU of gas usage and 1.5 KwH of electricity usage per square footage per month for office type locations.
5 Data does not include fleet fuel usage or one-time activities not associated with manufacturing or distribution.
6 Data does not include any metrics associated with the mid-year 2022 acquisition of Stanley Access Technologies.
7 2022 includes 10,000 purchased Emission Free Energy Credits (EFEC).
Allegion's waste sent to landfills increased 24% compared to our baseline year 2020*+3568.
In 2022, we decided to bring certain waste management in-house. While this activity did not intrinsically increase the amount of waste sent to landfill, it brought the activity from the Scope 3 to Scope 1 emissions category. As a result of this change, we have more visibility and control of our overall waste management. We do not expect this to impact achieving our long-term goal of reducing waste to landfill.

3 Assumes an average of 40 lbs. (18 kilograms) of non-hazardous waste per employee per month.
5 Data does not include fleet fuel usage or one-time activities not associated with manufacturing or distribution.
6 Data does not include any metrics associated with the mid-year 2022 acquisition of Stanley Access Technologies.
8 The 2020 and 2021 waste to landfill results were adjusted based on an internal audit conducted in 2023, resulting in a change in the 2021 comparison to baseline year 2020 and it has been adjusted from +3% to +1%.
