Ingevity Corp does not disclose any governance process for lobbying activities, including climate-related lobbying. The provided disclosures focus exclusively on sustainability oversight, such as the “ongoing Board oversight of our sustainability strategy” and the role of the “Sustainability and Safety Committee” to review “economic, environmental and social principles” and “corporate responsibility and sustainability programs.” We found no evidence of any internal mechanisms, oversight structures or accountability measures specific to direct or indirect lobbying, nor any policy, procedure or committee mandated to align lobbying with the company’s sustainability or climate goals. Moreover, the company explicitly states that it has no intention to align its engagement activities with the Paris Agreement, noting “No, and we do not plan to have one in the next two years.”

Ingevity provides a concise but narrowly focused disclosure of its climate-policy lobbying. It specifies that it has worked on a single piece of legislation—the “H.R. 3684 – Infrastructure Investments and Jobs Act, 117th Congress, Section 11403, Carbon Reduction Program”—demonstrating a willingness to identify the exact bill it is trying to influence. The company describes how it lobbies, noting that it is “engaging members of Congress” directly while acting “within a coalition of aligned stakeholders,” which clarifies both the direct and coalition-based channels it uses and the federal lawmakers it targets. It also makes its objective explicit, stating that it seeks “the addition of an amendment” to the carbon-reduction section of the bill and that it “Support[s] with no exceptions.” However, the disclosure is limited to this single policy initiative, offers only one clearly defined lobbying goal, and does not extend its transparency to other climate-related engagements, if any exist. As a result, the overall level of transparency about the breadth of its climate lobbying remains limited.
