Cleaner air, less waste and a brighter future…for everybody. Our commitment to environmental sustainability remains central to our operations.
Through integration with our Global Supply Chain team, we’re committed to improving efficiencies within our operations, as demonstrated through our science-aligned Scope 1 & 2 targets and Zero Waste to Landfill goals.
We’re making clear progress on reducing our overall operational environmental footprint, including energy consumption (Scope 1 and Scope 2), waste generation and landfilling.

Renewable Energy is Key
Transitioning our operations to renewable energy is reducing our total electrical load and carbon intensity.
“We see energy efficiency and carbon reduction opportunities as a way to continually improve how our operations work and our bottom line. Investing in these programs helps us to sustain our organization for the long run.”
Tamer Abuaita Global Chief Supply Chain Officer and President, Industrial
1. Scope 1: All direct emissions from those activities under our control, stationary and mobile, including on site fuel combustion such as gas-fired furnaces and boilers. Scope 2: Indirect emissions from electricity purchased and used.
2. Zero Waste to Landfill (ZWTL) goal applies to our manufacturing facilities and distribution centers where we have control of the operations and incineration with energy recovery is included in our ZWTL performance.
