Policy and goals

We are committed to running our business in an environmentally sound and sustainable manner. 

We set goals for continuous improvement in our development, sourcing, manufacturing, and transportation activities. As part of that commitment, we take a long term and life cycle view, continually improving environmental performance, communicating openly with our stakeholders and reporting regularly on our performance. 

These principles are enshrined in our Environmental Policy. Our Environmental Policy describes our environmental commitment at every step in the consumption and production chain - from society to raw materials.
