TO OUR STAKEHOLDERS
D. Christian Koch Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer Carlisle Companies Incorporated
Despite the consequences of the pandemic, 2020 reconfirmed our conviction in Vision 2025, our strategic plan which gives us clear direction and consistency of mission during these tumultuous times. As Chairman, President and CEO of Carlisle Companies, an essential part of the job is to cut through complexity and communicate clearly, directly, and confidently a strategic vision for the organization that informs priorities, educates on the mission, and guides everyday actions. As we continued our ESG journey in 2020, we advanced our sustainability goals by creating and implementing the Carlisle Environmental Sustainability Policy, which specifies the collection of detailed ESG data. Through evaluating the data, we can measure factors like pay equity or GHG emissions which we will use to establish improvement targets. The policy further establishes a process to engage our supply chain and ensure compliance with Carlisle policies for fair labor practices and our code of conduct. Finally, the policy formalizes our commitment to certify all our manufacturing facilities to the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System.
Report additional frameworks including The Taskforce for Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), and Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB). Begin the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System qualification process for an additional 12 manufacturing facilities. Launch Carlisle’s ESG portal, which will give investors and the general public unfettered access to Carlisle’s progress and data related to product-specific efficiency attributes, safety, training, Diversity and Inclusion as well as topic-specific GRI data.

While the ever-evolving nature of the ESG reporting environment continues, the development and implementation of policies such as our Environmental Sustainability Policy ensure we at Carlisle leverage continuous improvements to be a better company for our stakeholders. Our mission is to drive actions to achieve results on our ESG journey. Thank you for taking time to learn more about our ESG efforts.
In 2020, we elevated the Director of Sustainability role to Vice-President to further strengthen the impact of sustainability within Carlisle and to ensure accountability. The Vice President of Sustainability reports directly to the Chairman, President and CEO. Our intent is to make certain this leader will drive greater accountability, purpose, and alignment, as well as guide our ESG-reporting to a measurable level of prominence in our industry.

A New Era for ESG at Carlisle
I’m very pleased to be appointed Vice-President of Sustainability and lead Carlisle’s sustainability efforts. Having served in a variety of roles at Carlisle, this role has proven to be the most rewarding. I look forward to showcasing the impactful contributions of Carlisle team members towards achieving our sustainability goals.
I’m very pleased to be appointed Vice-President of Sustainability and lead Carlisle’s sustainability efforts. Having served in a variety of roles at Carlisle, this role has proven to be the most rewarding. I look forward to showcasing the impactful contributions of Carlisle team members towards achieving our sustainability goals. Carlisle’s first Corporate Sustainability Report (CSR), published in early 2020, reflected our legacy of sustainability and highlighted our continued stewardship and respect of and for our stakeholders. Following that first CSR, we created the Carlisle Environmental Sustainability Policy. The policy prescribes the collection of consumption data from our more than 170 facilities across the globe. Data for water, electricity, gas and hazardous waste were collected to establish baselines for future efficiency targets. The policy further establishes a process to engage our supply chain and to ensure compliance with Carlisle policies. Finally, the policy formalizes our commitment to certify all our manufacturing facilities to the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System by the end of 2025.
The themes of this year’s sustainability report reveal the great pride Carlisle’s employees take in engineering and manufacturing products that benefit our customers by improving manufacturing efficiency and increasing sustainable attributes.
Additionally, the legacy of our Diversity and Inclusion efforts, as demonstrated with our continuous female representation on our Board of Directors since 1978, is reflected as we advance our Diversity and Inclusion goals. Finally, the report will review our safety improvement efforts as exhibited by the Path to Zero program. As we deliver on Vision 2025, Carlisle remains steadfast in our commitment to ESG and another century of responsible stewardship.

Factory spotlight: Carlisle facility solar panel installations
In 2018, Carlisle installed rooftop solar systems on four facilities to explore energy savings potential. Early results are promising and will inform our decision to extend solar generation to more facilities.
Carlisle is committed to certify all our manufacturing sites to the ISO 14001 standard by the end of 2025. Currently 19, or 23%, of our plants are ISO 14001 certified and 3 are ISO 50001. In 2021, we continued to make progress by qualifying an additional 11 sites to ISO 14001 with upcoming certifications planned for 2022 and 2023.
Throughout the pandemic, many of our facilities remained open, but our production volumes were lower. As a result, we saw a decrease in resource use and greenhouse gas emissions accompanied by an increase in intensity when benchmarked against revenue. As our businesses continue to ramp up throughout 2021, we expect performance to return and improve as we continue to drive environmental action.
EPDM, TPO, PVC single-ply roofing membranes
Through innovation and stewardship, we continue to increase the use of waste material into our production streams.
Approx. 259,000 tons
of single-ply material has been recycled and kept out of landfills since 1999.

Carlisle Operating System
The Carlisle Operating System is an important conduit for employee engagement and development. Employees are encouraged to participate in and submit ideas for ongoing Kaizen events. In 2019, all factory employees participated in our Management for Daily Improvement (MDI) process, covering topics such as safety, quality, delivery, and efficiency — all with the aim of making Carlisle and the work experience better and stronger. Since its inception, COS programs have realized savings, cost avoidance and benefits in excess of $500 million dollars.
Carlisle utilizes COS, an operating system based on lean enterprise and six sigma principles to drive operational excellence.
“Early in my career while in my first role as a factory manager, I learned how important it is to create workspaces where employees can be confident that they will leave every day in the same condition as when they arrived. This is why I receive a report on every safety incident that occurs at Carlisle across the world every day, 365 days a year.”
OSHA incident rate
Path to Zero is the core of our safety management system, which is modeled on international and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards.
Ongoing safety training, reporting of near misses to identify areas to improve, and a safety-first culture help drive our safety results. We are proud of our safety record but, as in every continuous improvement culture, we know there is always room for growth.
Carlisle is a supporter of Phoenix Children’s Hospital, which has provided hope, healing and the best healthcare for children since its creation in 1983.

IMPACT
In 2021 alone:
Across America’s hard-to-serve urban areas, public school students drop out of school in alarming numbers, and for those that do graduate, the road to post-secondary education is filled with obstacles. Too many of America’s high school students are underserved and, as a result, are underperforming. The Elevate Phoenix model has proven effective in changing these trends and transforming the lives of our city’s youth. It is our goal to change the outcome for our future leaders.
