Together we share one planet. It is our responsibility to protect the environment for today’s generation as well as generations in the future. Working together, Lear employees are making a positive impact.
Lear’s E-Systems and Seating products are focused on providing solutions across key industry drivers like improved electric vehicle range, sustainable, natural and lightweight materials and intelligent in-vehicle experiences that maximize occupant personalization without sacrificing vehicle efficiency.
Lear’s Environmental Management System provides a systematic method for minimizing our impact on the environment. From ISO 14001:2015 certification to collecting energy, waste and water data, we have developed a quantitative and qualitative approach to measure and track our efforts in reducing our carbon footprint.
Lear’s global continuous improvement teams use lean manufacturing processes to identify energy and waste reduction projects, track progress and share best practices. We are consistently achieving our goals for using less energy and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
The world has a sufficient water supply to meet everyone’s needs—if we all work together to better manage it. We recognize our responsibility to manage and monitor our water usage and wastewater discharges throughout our operations, surface materials processes and to work towards usage targets that provide more water for everyone.
The best way to eliminate waste is to avoid creating it in the first place. Our use of environmentally sustainable foam, natural fibers, responsible leather and ocean waste plastic are all part of our resources and materials supply chain. Our Zero Waste to Landfill initiative encourages recycling, promotes composting and eliminates production waste from disposal in landfills.
