Mannington Mills issued its second "Values in Action" report, which details 2023 updates to the company's commitments and initiatives that are aligned with its environmental and social responsibility strategy. Some highlights of the report include:
• Mannington associates spent 6,765 hours pursuing professional development, policy and safety awareness and other training.
• The company signed on to the United Nations Global Compact—a commitment to advancing best practices around human rights, labor, the environment and anti-corruption.
• It became the first corporate sponsor of and first flooring manufacturer to join Build Reuse, an organization dedicated to the recovery and reuse of building materials, plus construction workforce development programs.
• Mannington formed a corporate partnership with Feeding America to help those facing hunger through the company’s "Working Together to Care for Our Communities" campaign that includes financial contributions from associates, the Campbell family and members of the company’s board.
• The company reported year-over-year progress driving down carbon, energy, water and waste intensity.
Mannington says this builds on the commitments outlined in 2022 to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 and to immediately reduce global emissions by offsetting the equivalent of 105% of the cradle-to-gate greenhouse gas emissions of all domestically manufactured commercial flooring products.
