TAKING BOLD ACTIONS

Committed to The Climate Pledge across the food chain

We understand that our impact is YOUR impact. That’s why we are focused on increasing the sustainability of our operations. Lineage signed The Climate Pledge in 2021 — setting our sights on achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2040.

OUR COMMITMENT
What it means to be part of The Climate Pledge
Here's how Lineage and over 200 companies are working together to encourage corporate action and address the climate crisis.
OUR GOAL

Building a sustainable supply chain for us all

Since our founding, Lineage has been built with the vision of creating a more sustainable future for the cold chain – and we continue to challenge our team to innovate and solve problems for our customers, our communities and – ultimately – our world.

At Lineage, we are proud to think differently about old challenges—developing, adapting and implementing technologies, strategies and solutions to create more resilient and sustainable infrastructure for our communities. We are proud of what we’ve built and excited for what we will build together in the years ahead.



FROM OUR LEADERSHIP

Sustainability matters to Lineage because we know temperature-controlled storage is an energy-intensive industry. We don’t believe that running a successful business and delivering on our sustainability goals are mutually exclusive goals. That's why we signed the Climate Pledge and are committed to achieving net-zero emissions by 2040.
