Within our North America Region
(NAR), we require contracted
carriers to be SmartWay® certified,
helping them move more goods, more
miles with lower emissions and less
energy. In 2015, we were honored
with a SmartWay® Award from the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
as an industry leader in supply-
chain environmental performance
and energy efficiency.
Through partnerships with the U.S.
Department of Energy’s Better
Buildings Program and Better Plants
Challenge, we initiated a program
to provide a global dashboard from
each of our plants and facilities
to promote energy efficiency,
water/waste conservation and
benchmarking. This allows for cross-
functional global collaboration and
best practices sharing.
With the ongoing successful
integration of Indesit in Europe and
Hefei Sanyo in China, breakthrough
creativity and innovations are
emerging as diverse teams join
together with best-in-class decision
making and problem solving.
