Carrier Unveils Its First Environmental Product Declaration for Residential HVAC Systems in North America

Carrier is pleased to announce the launch of its first Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for residential HVAC solutions in North America. This milestone reinforces the company’s ongoing commitment to sustainability and transparency in the environmental performance of its products. Carrier is a part of Carrier Global Corporation (NYSE: CARR), global leader in intelligent climate and energy solutions.

The EPD, based on rigorous life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology, provides a comprehensive overview of the environmental impacts associated with the production, use, and disposal of Carrier's Comfort™ Fan Coil and Performance™ Variable-Speed Compact Heat Pump. This independent declaration includes key metrics such as carbon dioxide performance, energy consumption, and natural resource usage, all of which are vital factors influencing the overall environmental footprint of the residential HVAC industry.

“Publishing our first residential EPD in North America represents a significant step forward in our commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility,” said Hakan Yilmaz, SVP, Chief Technology & Sustainability Officer, Carrier. “Transparency is key to empowering homeowners, contractors, and building professionals to make informed choices about the products they install. This EPD not only reflects our dedication to sustainable practices, but it also provides clear, credible data to support green building initiatives.”

The EPD follows established international standards, including ISO 14025, lending to the credibility and consistency of the environmental data. This initiative aligns with Carrier's broader strategy to invest $4 billion in the innovation and development of intelligent climate and energy solutions that reduce environmental impacts and help customers avoid more than 1 gigaton of greenhouse gas emissions by 2030.

Recently, Carrier was honored as a Green Builder Media 2024 Eco-Leader for its sustainability transparency, including its publication of 48 EPDs for HVAC products globally.

With the publication of this EPD, Carrier is helping to meet growing consumer demand for more environmentally conscious products in the HVAC market. By providing detailed environmental impact information, the company is empowering its customers to make choices that align with their sustainability goals.
