AUBURN HILLS, Mich.,
March 4, 2019 /PRNewswire/
-- BorgWarner has been named one of Barron's 100 Most
Sustainable U.S. Companies after a research team conducted a
thorough review and ranked large, publicly held companies based on
200 key indicators and nearly 30 issues related to environmental,
social and corporate governance. Companies on the list serve a
variety of industries, including retail, finance, food and
beverage, and more; BorgWarner is one of just a few automotive
companies to receive this honor.
"Sustainability truly is at the core of our work every day,"
said Frederic Lissalde, President and CEO, BorgWarner Inc. "At
BorgWarner, our vision is to achieve a clean, energy-efficient
world, and this recognition from Barron's validates we're
taking the right steps in our pursuit of making our vision a
reality."
To ensure BorgWarner's sustainability efforts are consistent,
the Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors
periodically reviews the company's sustainability activities and
provides recommendations to further enhance its sustainability
strategy, policies and procedures. Additionally, to meet its
environmental objectives across the supply chain, BorgWarner
engages its suppliers in using green materials and processes. The
company also provides its suppliers with avenues for free training
to ensure expectations and sustainable principles are being
met.
"Decades ago BorgWarner made the commitment to do our part in
preserving our natural resources, and today we continue to make
great strides in creating and maintaining safe, clean environments
for our employees, customers and stakeholders," continued
Lissalde.
While manufacturing its industry leading propulsion systems, the
company continuously strives to find ways to reduce emissions,
conserve water and energy, and increase efficiency.
Another key sustainability practice at BorgWarner is mandating
a comprehensive recycling program at its facilities worldwide. The
company has established active recycling programs at 100 percent of
its facilities.
