The report sets a benchmark for future progress across environmental, social, and governance initiatives, while emphasizing PHINIA’s focus on driving long-term value for stakeholders.

“We are proud to share our inaugural Sustainability Report following our launch as an independent company in July 2023,” said Brady Ericson, President and Chief Executive Officer, PHINIA. “While aspects of PHINIA may be new, our commitment to sustainability has long been embedded in our business and culture. As we reflect on this foundational year, we recognize the importance of establishing our sustainability strategies that form the bedrock for long-term performance.”

The report unveils PHINIA's initial sustainability priorities and framework, as well as the governance structure established to foster collaboration, engagement, and oversight of sustainability initiatives, including the formation of a Sustainability Council and Sustainability Steering Committee and the integration of Board-level oversight.

Highlights of the report also include:

  • Investments to Power a Cleaner Tomorrow: In 2023, PHINIA invested 78% of its R&D spend in fuel efficiency and alternative fuel technologies, with 30% dedicated to zero- and lower-carbon fuel systems. PHINIA also received its first major business award for a hydrogen fuel cell program application for medium-duty trucks, and secured a significant gasoline direct injection (GDi) program for light vehicle plug-in electric hybrid programs.
  • Design for Environment: PHINIA is implementing a process to quantify and reduce the life cycle emissions for all significant new product development. The process will be used to calculate the air, water, and resource impacts of such new products across their lifecycle and optimize methods to reduce environmental impact.

The Company also achieved a 9.9% annual reduction in carbon emissions through energy efficiency, footprint optimization, and green energy sourcing initiatives.

    • Women in Science and Engineering (WiSE), PHINIA’s first employee belonging group geared to fostering collaboration and empowerment amongst female talent in STEM roles
    • Refinement of PHINIA’s global EDI strategy focused on empowering women, promoting intergenerational collaboration, leveraging cultural diversity, and cultivating the development of diverse teams
    • Establishment of an EDI Council to drive progress on the Company's EDI action plan

Ethics, compliance, and other training help employees to act responsibly, ethically, and in alignment with PHINIA’s Code of Ethical Conduct, core values, and other policies.

“We believe in making a positive impact through our business and actions," continued Ericson.
