The Dow Jones Sustainability World Index comprises global sustainability leaders as defined by SAM. The SAM Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA) is an annual evaluation of companies’ sustainability practices. Each year they assess over 7’300 companies around the world. The CSA focuses on criteria that are both industry-specific and financially material, and has been doing so since 1999. It represents the top 10% of the largest 2,500 companies in the S&P Global BMI based on long-term economic, environmental and social criteria.

“Operating with social and environmental responsibility is foundational to our success and an important part of who we are as a company,” said Don Lindsay, President and CEO. “Our employees ensure that sustainability is at the heart of everything we do to provide the materials needed for the modern world and for the transition to a low-carbon economy.”
