Caring for the environment is a fundamental part of the corporate culture of Saint-Gobain Abrasives. 

We pride ourselves on having an environment friendly approach to all our business activities as we recognise that Environmental responsibility is both our responsibility as employers and also important for successful business operations.

We actively look to promote our environmental principles through our EHS (Environment, Health and Safety) policy. The Policy is distributed to all employees to ensure a clear consistent message is delivered. This is supported by the responsible attitude shown by all our employees towards the use of natural resources, and constant monitoring to ensure that environmentally focused business objectives are met. Regular procedural reviews and employee training sessions are undertaken to ensure this takes place.

Environmental Protection

Our Waste management program is designed to optimise recycling activities of a range of materials including paper, carton, wood, production dust, steel, and batteries. Zero pollution of air, water and land is defined as a major objective.

Reduction of natural resources consumption

New production processes and procedures are regularly implemented to help minimize the amount of waste created at all manufacturing facilities. Improving process technology and systems are a strong focus to help enhance energy conservation.

All Saint-Gobain Abrasives manufacturing facilities implement an Environmental Management System, with most having been certified to the international ISO 14001 standard.

Here at Saint-Gobain Abrasives, we seek to achieve environmental excellence in all our business operations.
