“We take our societal responsibility seriously and this newest commitment adds to our earlier recognition that Helios Technologies’ environmental, social and governance (ESG) responsibilities are the living, operating principles by which we measure ourselves and shape our behavior on a daily basis,” commented Josef Matosevic, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Initial efforts and steps are underway as we develop more detailed plans to reach this long-term commitment. At the Board level, we established an ESG Committee as a component of our governance structure to assist the Company in its oversight of corporate social responsibilities, significant public policy issues, health and safety, and climate-change related trends and other global ESG matters.

“We believe this is an important step forward in building a more sustainable company that can create long-term value for all stakeholders.”

Helios has completed its first Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas inventory and is working on detailed emission-reduction roadmaps for its major operated assets.
