Our sustainability approach translates our purpose into action and guides all our business operations. It underpins our long-term business strategy and incorporates our goals to operate sustainably in the communities where we can make the greatest impact, and support others on the same path.

Our Commitment to a Sustainable Future

We Remain Dedicated to Investing our Resources in a More Sustainable Future for All

Our sustainability solutions incorporate renewable and alternative fuels to help protect precious resources, resulting in reducing both our environmental impact, and overall carbon emissions globally.

Our capabilities, global footprint, and energy expertise enable us to help our customers with the same holistic approach that we are taking to sustainability.

Our goal remains to conduct our business in a manner that promotes energy efficiency and minimizes Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions from our operations.

“We are proud of our successful track record of supporting sustainability both internally and within our customer, supplier, and business partner community.”

In 2019, we became a signatory to the UN Global Compact, the world’s largest corporate responsibility initiative.

In 2019, we calculated our baseline carbon footprint and published our inaugural Sustainability Report.

In both 2019 and 2020, we achieved carbon neutrality and are on track to achieve the same for 2021.

Our Commitment to the UN Global Compact

We remain focused on supporting the UN’s principles on human rights, labor, the environment, and anti-corruption through our goals and objectives.

Sustainability is a word that many companies like to use, but few exemplify. A company that embraces sustainability takes responsibility for the impact of its operations on the environment. That means noting and taking action on the opportunities, threats, and challenges that impact climate change and public health due to their products, manufacturing, waste, and supply chain operations.
