Security solutions developed with people, business and the planet in mind.
As part of Fortune Brands Innovations, Master Lock contributes to a broader commitment to responsible business practices, operational efficiency, product safety and environmental stewardship.
Fortune Brands' ONE Home approach brings its environmental, social and governance priorities together under three focus areas: Home Planet, Home Safe and Home For All.
Master Lock has built its reputation around products that help protect people, property and workplaces. As part of Fortune Brands Innovations, the brand sits within a wider corporate responsibility strategy focused on responsible products, efficient operations, emissions reduction, associate safety, inclusive workplaces and strong governance.
Fortune Brands describes this strategy as ONE Home: a unified approach designed to integrate ESG considerations with brand, innovation and business leadership. The company focuses its efforts on areas where it believes it can make the most meaningful impact.
What is ONE Home?
ONE Home is the Fortune Brands Innovations framework that organises the group's environmental, social and governance priorities into three connected focus areas.
Master Lock sits inside this framework as one of the group's brands, which is why many commitments and reported outcomes apply across the Fortune Brands portfolio rather than to Master Lock alone.
Master Lock operates at the intersection of people, planet and business
Fortune Brands' approach recognises that long-term value is created where environmental responsibility, human wellbeing and business performance intersect.
Good for
People
Helping improve safety, security and wellbeing
Master Lock products are designed to support the protection of people, assets and workplaces. Across the wider portfolio, Fortune Brands also prioritises associate safety, wellbeing and responsible products that address consumer safety needs.
Good for
The Planet
Supporting more responsible operations and products
Fortune Brands works to address sustainability opportunities through more efficient use of energy and water, waste reduction, increased recycling and efforts to reduce operational carbon emissions.
Good for
Business
Building a stronger and more responsible business
Responsible operations, product innovation, ethical conduct and effective governance support resilience, stakeholder confidence and long-term value creation.
That intersection is where Master Lock delivers security solutions while contributing to Fortune Brands' broader corporate responsibility objectives.
The framework
The Fortune Brands ONE Home approach
Fortune Brands' ESG strategy is organised around three connected areas.
Fortune Brands works to improve operating efficiency, reduce carbon emissions and respond to sustainability needs through its products and business practices.
Home Safe
Supporting safer products and workplaces
The Home Safe focus area covers associate safety and wellbeing, as well as products that respond to safety, security and wellness needs.
Master Lock's security and lockout solutions align particularly strongly with this area by helping organisations manage access, protect property and strengthen workplace safety practices.
Home For All
Building an inclusive and engaged culture
Fortune Brands aims to create an environment where associates can contribute authentically and where a diverse, engaged workforce can better understand and innovate for consumers.
Product impact
Security products with practical impact

2024 ESG Report
Transparent ESG reporting
Fortune Brands Innovations publishes information on the environmental, social and governance matters considered most relevant to its business and stakeholders.
Its ESG reporting covers the company's ONE Home strategy and the Home Planet, Home Safe and Home For All focus areas. The reporting hub also provides access to supporting resources and disclosure indices, including TCFD- and SASB-related information. At present, the Fortune Brands website lists its 2024 ESG Report as the latest report available.
Master Lock's core purpose is closely connected to safety and protection. Through its place within Fortune Brands Innovations, the brand forms part of a wider approach that considers responsible products, environmental performance, workplace safety, inclusion, governance and long-term business resilience.
