CORPORATE CITIZENSHIP
Doing Business the Right Way
Being a good supplier means more than delivering on time. It means operating ethically, protecting people and the environment, and contributing to the places where our team lives and works.
Responsibility Is Part of How We Work
Customers in energy, infrastructure and industry trust us with materials that go into safety-critical systems. That trust rests on how we behave when nobody is checking: honest records, fair dealing, safe workplaces and careful sourcing.
Our approach to corporate citizenship is organized around three commitments: operating with integrity, reducing our impact and strengthening our communities. The pages below explain each in more detail and show where we are still building.

Three areas that describe how we operate and give back.
Our Guiding Commitments
Integrity in every transaction
We keep accurate records, compete fairly and never offer or accept improper payments. Our people are expected to speak up and are protected when they do.
Safe people, safe sites
Health and safety are a condition of doing business. We train our team, investigate incidents and share lessons across locations.
Responsible sourcing
We work with suppliers who share our expectations on quality, labor practices and lawful conduct, and we ask them to confirm those expectations in writing.
Care for the environment
We look for practical ways to cut waste, use energy wisely and help customers meet their own environmental goals with the right products.
An inclusive workplace
We want every colleague to have the tools, respect and opportunity to do their best work, and we treat discrimination and harassment as unacceptable.
Investing locally
We support education, community services and emergency relief in the places where our teams live, through giving and volunteering.
