Ongoing Sustainability Efforts

At SP, we are dedicated to continually improving our manufacturing processes to support Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) efforts and responsible manufacturing. We demonstrate this commitment through our actions and overarching goal to:

  • Meet and exceed all statutory and regulatory requirements for environmental protection in the locations where we operate and distribute our products.
  • Identify and support available and viable opportunities to reduce our carbon footprint by minimizing waste, implementing responsible energy use protocols, and targeting a sustainable product life cycle.
  • Prefer options that utilize science-based targets to minimize greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (including Scope 1, 2, and 3), maximize energy efficiency, reduce energy use, and promote waste reduction, while fulfilling our organization’s obligations. We are committed to complying with the SEC’s rule of climate disclosure and the GHG Protocol Corporate Standard.
  • Actively encourage, support, and reward recycling and responsible reuse initiatives and practices by our team members and partners.
  • Develop, source, manufacture, and promote our product ranges with a focus on materials and practices that minimize or, where possible, eliminate the environmental impact of our products’ production and distribution.
  • Collaborate with socially and environmentally conscious suppliers, consistently auditing relevant parties to ensure they meet and, where possible, exceed our values, reinforcing our commitment to customers for quality goods and services.
  • Adopt environmental, social, and governance programs to document and track the ESG’s impact.
