Uponor, Minnesota Twins Launch Partnership Focused on Sustainability and Community Impact


“As Minnesota’s baseball team, we have a unique opportunity to collaborate with industry leaders and leverage our platforms to drive measurable change in our communities and beyond,” said Twins Executive Vice President and Chief Revenue Officer Sean Moore. “Minnesota’s own Uponor and the broader GF share the same commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship that is ingrained in the Twins’ ethos. We are proud that Uponor recognizes our continued operation of Target Field as ‘The Greenest Ballpark in America,’ and we are incredibly excited to partner with their globally renowned experts as, together, we push toward new and innovative solutions.”

“The shared interest in supporting our community with sustainable solutions is the driving force behind this partnership,” said John Reutter, interim president of GF Building Flow Solutions Americas. “The Minnesota Twins continue to raise the bar to deliver an outstanding ballpark experience with green measures in place. We’re excited to continue these efforts by bringing the Uponor brand into Twins Territory and underscoring the importance of leading with energy efficiency in buildings of all kinds.”


Award-Winning Partners
Uponor’s first professional sports partnership aligns two like-minded, Minnesota-based, and internationally recognized sustainability leaders. TIME and Statista named Uponor one of the World’s Most Sustainable Companies for 2024, ranking 343rd out of the top 500 companies globally. Also in 2024, Uponor was named an Eco Leader by Green Builder Media for its efforts in setting a new standard for Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs).

The Twins organization, which garnered a 2019 Leadership Award by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), was recognized in 2024 by the international membership of GOAL (Green Operations & Advanced Leadership) with 29 “GOAL Medals” for leadership, work, and dedication to advancing environmental, social and governance (ESG) objectives. The club’s design, construction and ongoing operation of Target Field has led to the Twins’ home ballpark becoming the first and only MLB facility to receive five separate LEED certifications and the nation’s first pro sports venue to earn three levels of LEED designations through the USGBC’s Arc platform, which uses real-time data to benchmark, measure and improve sustainability performance.


Leading With Water. Enriching Lives. Together.
Uponor, which strives to continuously pioneer sustainable water solutions for buildings, and the Twins organization, which endeavors to build a better tomorrow for all, are now working together to shape a legacy of environmental stewardship that ensures our communities and our planet flourish for generations to come.

“Leading With Water. Enriching Lives. Together.” will focus on advancing sustainability goals related to community resilience and ecosystem stewardship, promoting entrepreneurship to push the boundaries of innovation, and serving as a catalyst for positive change through community impact initiatives that empower youth.

Additionally, Uponor is a Minnesota Twins Community Fund Cornerstone Partner, joining Target, U.S. Bank, Treasure Island Resort & Casino, and Nike.
