Oregon Tool Publishes 2025 ESG Impact Report

PORTLAND, Ore., October 15, 2026 — Oregon Tool, Inc., a global manufacturer of professional-grade precision cutting tools, today announced the publication of its 2025 ESG Impact Report, detailing the company’s continued progress across environmental, social, and governance (ESG) initiatives and the evolution of its ESG strategy from framework to focus.

Building on the foundation established through the company’s inaugural ESG Impact Report, the 2025 report reflects a more focused approach to managing the sustainability issues most relevant to Oregon Tool’s business and stakeholders. Informed by a double materiality assessment and stakeholder engagement, Oregon Tool identified a set of Tier 1 priorities to help guide future ESG efforts, resource allocation, and long-term value creation.

"By gaining greater clarity on where we can have the most meaningful impact, we're strengthening our ability to create long-term value for our customers, Team Members, communities, and business," said Terry Hames, Chief Executive Officer.

The report is organized around Oregon Tool’s t.r.e.e. Initiative, the company’s framework for ESG efforts focused on Tools, Responsibility, Environment, and Engagement. Together, these pillars guide how Oregon Tool approaches sustainability across its global operations.

Highlights from the report include:

  • Tools: Providing the products, training, and expertise that help customers work safely, effectively, and responsibly while supporting communities when needed most.
  • Responsibility: Strengthening the governance, ethics, cybersecurity, compliance, and accountability practices that support responsible business operations worldwide.
  • Environment: Advancing efforts to reduce environmental impacts through emissions management, resource conservation, waste reduction, and operational sustainability initiatives.
  • Engagement: Investing in Team Member growth, development, and well-being while supporting communities through volunteerism, strategic giving, and community partnerships.
"The progress featured throughout this report reflects initiatives, partnerships, and actions across our business, supported by the dedication and everyday contributions of Team Members across the globe," said Emily Lyle, Senior Vice President, Human Resources & ESG. "As our ESG program continues to evolve, we are turning our sustainability priorities into meaningful action and measurable impact."

The report also outlines Oregon Tool’s Tier 1 ESG priorities, including climate change, cybersecurity, sustainable packaging, regulatory compliance, and stakeholder engagement, which will help guide the company’s efforts in the years ahead.
