Corporate Sustainability

Corporate sustainability is about more than just protecting the environment, although that is core to this approach. A sustainable business is one that works in step with societal and environmental goals, rather than at odds with them. Corporate sustainability is a business strategy for long-term growth that works in harmony with people and the planet.

The three sustainability areas we are most concerned with are

Socially

This relates to practices that promote the health, safety and wellbeing of employees, customers and communities. This includes activities like establishing an effective safety culture, ensuring customers have the information they need to use products safely and protecting access to basic resources.

The Environment

This area includes strategies to eliminate and offset greenhouse gas emissions, use green energy, eliminate toxic hazards, reuse or recycle materials and manage waste, and reducing our carbon footprint. We also have a commitment to trying to get as close to 100% paperless as possible

Economic

Our goal is to make a long-term positive impact. Examples of this might be reducing costs by using less plastic in product packaging or creating green jobs. We also are implementing strategies to eliminate and offset greenhouse gas emissions, use green energy, eliminate toxic hazards, reuse or recycle materials and manage waste, and reducing the carbon footprint.
