Commitment to
Sustainability
SWM is committed to the principles of sustainable development.
We recognize that sustainability is a continuing journey, focused
on long-term objectives, short-term goals, and measurable
parameters of success. It is a journey we began many years ago and
is in keeping with our core values and part of our Brand Promise.
We continue to invest in sustainability across all our operating
units, minimizing our use of non-renewable resources and the
impacts on our environment as we seek to become a sustainability
leader within our industry.

responsibilities seriously. In addition to complying with existing
environmental laws and regulations, we practice a foresighted

Health and Occupational
Safety
Everyone deserves a safe work environment. Yet accidents will
occur, and workers may be exposed to risk in the course of their
work. Maintaining a safe workplace requires constant vigilance; the
use of proper equipment, safeguards and procedures; and a
relentless pursuit of "zero" incidents. Our goals are high but our
safety record places us among the top 5% best-performing companies
across all industries.
