## Sustainability story

We're here for tomorrow.

As a certified B Corporation, we are committed to making decisions that positively impact our employees, communities, and the environment.

Since 2019, we have been offsetting 100% of our carbon footprint through Climate Neutral Certification. Not only that, but we also continue to reduce our footprint further by refining our operations, manufacturing processes, and the materials we use.

We're mindful that this is just the starting point, but we’d like to share our approach to creating a more sustainable future with you.

## Emissions (2025)

**Methodology:** Orbitkey's emissions inventory uses a mix of spending and activity-based data. Orbitkey attests to the accuracy of their data inputs and the Change Climate team reviews the submission for compliance with the Standard.
