Environmental Policy
POOLCORP® strives to implement and administer an environmental policy that prioritizes legal compliance, pollution prevention and resource conservation. We share an obligation with our suppliers across all stages of the supply chain to unify our efforts toward continued environmental integrity. Further, we expect our suppliers to abide by the principles of this policy.
Environmental Sustainability
Our environmental priorities include:
Sustainable Sourcing:
We are committed to sourcing our products from environmentally-conscious suppliers. We encourage all companies involved in the lifecycle of our products to adhere to ISO 14000 environmental standards and all other relevant environmental legislation.
Climate Protection:
As our company continues to expand, POOLCORP® and our suppliers aim to reduce carbon emissions throughout all phases of the supply chain. We are mitigating greenhouse gas emissions by introducing electric vehicles and equipment, implementing renewable energy and enhancing energy efficiency.
Waste Mitigation:
We divert waste through our recycling programs and sensible disposal of hazardous products. We manage our waste comprehensively and address all locations with an individual plan.
Performance Tracking and Reporting:
We report environmental, social and governance advancements in our annual corporate responsibility report. In addition to our annual corporate responsibility reporting, we utilize internal programs which track progress relating to our environmental objectives.
Employee Awareness:
We believe that well-defined duties, training and engagement opportunities promote a culture of environmental distinction.
