Gibson Importing Co Sustainability Actions

Published ESG and climate reports

Gibson Energy has published a series of sustainability-related reports, including sustainability reports for 2021 to 2024, modern slavery reports for 2023 to 2025, a 2020 TCFD report, and several CDP climate responses. TCFD stands for Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures, a framework for explaining climate risks and plans. The company says these disclosures are overseen by a board sustainability committee and reviewed internally. It also says the reports use guidance from SASB and GRI, two common reporting standards that help companies explain ESG topics in a more structured way.

Set net zero and interim targets

In 2021, Gibson Energy announced a Net Zero by 2050 target for Scope 1 and 2 emissions, which are the emissions it directly creates and the emissions from the energy it buys. It also set interim goals for 2025 and 2030. These include reducing overall emissions intensity, cutting processing emissions intensity, reducing storage and handling emissions intensity, and fully removing its absolute Scope 2 impact by 2030. The company said these targets are based on a 2020 baseline and are part of its longer-term climate plan.

Improved emissions at Moose Jaw

Gibson Energy said it invested in thermal heat exchanger technology at its Moose Jaw facility during a $20 million expansion. It reported that this cut emissions intensity by more than 10% on a per-barrel basis. The company also said it planned to switch the facility’s fuel supply from a feedstock-based fuel to natural gas to lower emissions further. It described this as part of its wider effort to improve the environmental performance of its assets and to factor greenhouse gas emissions into capital review decisions.

Expanded safety and injury controls

The company says health and safety is a core part of its sustainability work. In its 2021 report, it said it achieved its best health and safety performance on record, with zero lost-time injuries and zero recordable vehicle incidents for employees and contractors for a second year in a row. It also reported a total recordable injury frequency of 0.43 for employees. Gibson Energy said it uses these results to track progress toward top-quartile safety performance among peers.

Increased community and Indigenous work

Gibson Energy reported nearly $1.5 million in contributions to non-profit groups and more than 12 hours of volunteering per employee. It also said it released Indigenous Engagement Principles and advanced its Indigenous relations work in communities near its operations. The company added support for mental health, community engagement, and training for employees. These actions show a focus on social impact alongside environmental work.

Launched repurpose products

Gibson, the instrument maker, launched the Gibson Repurpose Collection in 2024. The range uses leftover wood from guitar-making to create lifestyle products. The company also said it is exploring the use of sustainable and recycled materials such as ocean plastics in its processes. It described the collection as being made in Nashville by On The Edge, a social enterprise program that supports people facing disadvantage. This links product design with waste reduction and social support.

Used ESG pay links

Gibson Energy said 35% of its short-term incentive plan is tied to sustainability and ESG performance. That means part of executive pay depends on progress on climate and other ESG goals. The company said this helps keep sustainability a priority across the business and supports delivery of its 2025, 2030, and 2050 targets.
