Deliver sustainability scorecards through Center of Excellence dashboards and the Operational Excellence Environmental Pillar of the 新加坡六合彩官方网站 Building Brands Production System.

Assess the GHG Protocol for Scope 3 emissions for relevance and develop inventories per material categories as needed.

Research and invest in select onsite renewable energy sources.

Incorporate water conservation actions into select site EHS&S business plans.

Investigate systems to drive potential Zero-Waste-to-Landfill manufacturing sites.

MANAGING CLIMATE CHANGE & ENERGY

We are continuously evaluating and implementing proven strategies to mitigate our contributions to climate change. Our goal is to build a cleaner, safer tomorrow for our communities, stakeholders, partners and customers. Our strategy focuses on reducing the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and energy intensity of our operations.

EMPOWERING ENERGY EFFICIENCY USING ACCESSIBLE DATA

新加坡六合彩官方网站 Building Brands leverages our centralized ESG data platform, Pulsora鈩�, and our utility management platform, EMSys, to monitor our energy consumption and identify areas of opportunity for emission reductions such as renewable and low-carbon energy sources. In 2022, we leveraged the platforms to establish a performance baseline to inform future opportunities for emissions reduction. We also rely on analytics from these platforms to identify sites for focused energy audits and region-specific water conservation initiatives.

We continue to progress on our journey to reduce the carbon footprint of our fleet through regular maintenance, optimizing vehicle fuel models and encouraging improved driving behaviors, such as loading each truck as efficiently and completely as possible before leaving the plant. Such modifications enable us to exceed the average industry fleet fuel efficiency by 7%.

UNDERSTANDING OUR ENVIRONMENTAL FOOTPRINT

Building a safer tomorrow requires careful stewardship of natural resources today. We are on a journey of continuous improvement, ensuring that we comply with environmental regulations and requirements while developing new programs and strategies. Our areas of focus include waste diversion and product circularity programs, reducing how much water and materials we use and responsible sourcing and securing of supplies.

DESIGNING BETTER BEGINNINGS & ENDS

Sustainability is a key attribute for many of our product materials. Our steel roof and wall panels are a recyclable construction solution with lower maintenance requirements and replacement frequency. Less maintenance translates to lower material waste, labor costs and energy consumption.

In 2023, our program has reclaimed more than 1.6 million pounds of scrap for recycling, and we granted credit to our customers for their participation. Additionally, approximately 5,750 bulk crates were returned, repaired and reused.
