Commitment to Sustainability

Many companies today claim their products are "green" but without a clear definition of what "green" means, these claims mean little. Sustainability might be a better term for efforts to enhance environmental performance.

According to the U.S Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), sustainability is "meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs." Sustainability considers environmental, health and safety issues throughout the entire life cycle of a product – from design and manufacture through use and disposal.
