Sustainability
At GATX, our mission is to provide innovative, unparalleled service that enables our customers to transport what matters safely and sustainably, while championing the well-being of our employees and communities.
We are the leading global provider of railcar leasing and serve customers throughout North America, Europe, and India. In addition, we jointly own one of the largest aircraft spare engine leasing portfolios in the world, and we own, lease, and manage a global fleet of tank containers.
Our assets have long useful lives, and we proactively manage our business with a long-term view. In doing so, we strive to operate and grow in a sustainable and socially responsible manner. It’s good business, but more importantly, it’s the right thing to do.
For us, operating sustainably means we act honestly and with integrity, maintain a safe and healthy workplace in which our employees can grow and thrive, operate in an environmentally responsible manner and maintain our railcars and other assets to reduce safety risks, and invest in and contribute to our communities.
GATX applies a continuous improvement mindset in managing our environmental, social, and governance (ESG) impact and efforts. We are proud of the progress we have achieved thus far and will continue to build upon this foundation as we drive toward our vision of empowering our customers to propel the world forward.
