ENVIRONMENTAL PRINCIPLES
Our Statement of Sustainability
 Cormark’s policy is to conduct business in a manner compliant with all applicable environmental laws and regulations, and further, to apply responsible standards where such laws or regulations do not exist. We commit to managing our business with the objective of providing a healthy and safe workplace for our employees, and to safeguard the environment, human health, wildlife, and the natural resources of the world around us in which we both work and live.
Cormark maintains the position that sustainability is more than merely environmentalism, but is about living and working in ways that do not jeopardize the future of our social, economic, and natural resources. Sustainability means managing human and natural capital with the same vigor that we apply to the management of financial capital. It is in that spirit that Cormark pledges to include in the scope of our awareness the true and complete cost of every choice we make.
Our Commitment to the Environment
Cormark fully embraces the spirit of sustainability and enforces the use of recyclable materials. Our commitment to this practice is reinforced through such initiatives as:
Our own internal "Green Team" which focuses on specific opportunities for us to continually reduce waste and conserve energy
Our active membership in such organizations as USGBC (the LEED for Retail program) and Businesses for Social Responsibility
Our own "eco-friendly" logo which is used to identify recyclable products and packaging
Our ecological commitment to green manufacturing processes
Our recycling program, which we enforce throughout all of our facilities
Our policy to review sustainability guidelines with each new employee as part of our standard orientation process
