THOR Industries Releases Eighth Annual Sustainability Report

For over 45 years, THOR Industries has utilized responsible and sustainable business practices in its operations as its products inspire and empower people to connect with nature and one another to “Go Everywhere. Stay Anywhere.” THOR Industries recently published its eighth annual sustainability report detailing the company’s industry-leading sustainability efforts for its fiscal year ended July 31, 2025 (FY2025) across its global family of companies, THOR said in a press release.

thor sustainability cover“At THOR, our sustainability efforts focus not only on creating more innovative products to minimize environmental impact while using our RVs but also focus on improving our environmental and social impact within our operations, our value chain and in the communities where our team members live, work and play,” shared Bob Martin, THOR president and CEO. “We are committed to making changes now to ensure a sustainable future exists so people can continue to connect with nature, and families with one another, to create lifelong memories.”

THOR said it has taken significant steps in its sustainability journey to lead the way for the RV industry. The introduction of the Entegra Coach Embark, one of the world’s first range-extended electric class A motorhomes, illustrates the successful execution of THOR’s eMobility strategy, helping drive lower greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by developing electric vehicles to reduce reliance on internal combustion engines. The company continued its innovation, elevating eMobility with the unveiling of Dethleffs’ e.home ECO prototype at the Düsseldorf Caravan Salon. The e.home ECO combines electric mobility and sustainable construction — nearly every component used by Dethleffs in the RV prototype has a lower carbon footprint versus components utilized in traditional RV construction.

FY2025 Sustainability Journey Highlights:

  • Decreased global Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 36% vs. the company’s baseline Fiscal Year 2019
  • Decreased Scope 3 emission by 42% globally vs. the company’s baseline Fiscal Year 2022

“At THOR, we do not view sustainability as a compliance exercise, but as a core component of our long-term strategic vision,” said Todd Woelfer, THOR senior vice president and chief operating officer. “Creating great outdoor experiences is central to our business, and our sustainability focus strengthens our ability to deliver on that mission. Our global sustainability program reflects a deep-rooted commitment to improving the lives of our team members and customers, supporting vibrant and resilient communities, and promoting a clean and safe environment.”
