Our SmartLife™ approach ensures that we operate in an ethical and responsible manner, embrace inclusion and diversity, manage our operations and supply chain safely and efficiently, and develop products that will reduce waste and minimize the use of resources. The addition of Diversey strengthens our commitment, as its leadership in sustainable practices in the global cleaning and sanitation marketplace reinforces our goals and enhances our efforts. Today, our Sustainability Advisory Team, consisting of executives representing different regions and functions, ensures that we balance short- and long-term interests while integrating economic, environmental and social considerations in our decision making each day.
