Owens Corning recently released its eighth annual Sustainability Report, which reportedly announced significant progress toward achieving its 2020 environmental footprint goals, and declared its intentions to expand its handprint beyond the walls of its facilities. The company defines its handprint as the net-positive effects of its products, market-leading work to drive energy efficiency and climate-impact improvements across the built environment, and improving the lives of employees, their families, and their communities.
“Dedicating time and energy to achieving our sustainability goals, expanding our handprint, is one way we are striving to be better every day as a company,” said Frank O’Brien-Bernini, vice president and chief sustainability officer. “This effort includes the products we offer, collaborating with customers to increase the positive impact of those products in the world and productively engaging in our communities.”
