Committed to Responsible Growth
Investing in our future.
At TouchPoint, investing in the future means building enduring value that extends beyond engineered solutions. It includes protecting the environment, safeguarding the health and safety of our employees, contractors, customers, supply-chain partners, and neighbors, and operating responsibly in every community where we do business.

Environmental
Sustainability is a shared value for both community and business growth — a continuing effort, not a reporting cycle.
In 2025 we accelerated our localized solar capacity. The new Southco facility in Foshan, China features a 770 kW rooftop solar system; Rzeszów, Poland began consuming output from a 50 kW ground-mount installation in May.
Our iTD facility in Pfarrkirchen, Germany consumes no fossil fuels — only wood-pellet biomass for hot-water building conditioning — and produced ~350,000 kWh of renewable electricity on-site in 2025, achieving a 91% reduction in combined Scope 1 & 2 emissions from the 2022 baseline.
Multix (Como, Italy), Southco-Worcester UK, Southco-São Paulo Brazil, and SupplyPoint-Rugby UK now run on 100% renewable electricity.

Employee Engagement Rate
Every employee sets an annual development goal. Our development approach includes leadership and coaching, digital learning, safety and compliance education, tuition reimbursement, and broadening assignments.
TouchPoint fully supports National Living Wages and is committed to paying at least the established rate. For well over 10 years Southco has maintained a Total Recordable Incident Rate well below the industry average; in 2025 TouchPoint began tracking TRIR collectively for all companies, at 0.49 recordable injuries per 100 employees.
Approximately 100 Southco associates work under collective bargaining agreements. We have not experienced any work stoppages.
Governance
Good corporate governance enables us to meet financial, operational, and strategic objectives, advance the long-term interests of our stakeholders, and promote accountability across our leadership teams.
Our Vice President, General Counsel, and Secretary reports directly to TouchPoint’s President and CEO on the progress of our sustainability program, and updates the Board of Directors at least annually.
TouchPoint has a Code of Conduct that all employees must acknowledge and comply with — linked from the homepage of every operating company website. The Code expressly prohibits bribery, conflicts of interest, fraud, and money laundering, and aligns with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the UK Anti-Bribery Act.
TouchPoint has experienced no monetary losses from legal proceedings for bribery, corruption, or anti-competitive practices in the last decade.
