Environmental Policy

SUSTAINABLITY

Houseguard & Oldcastle Materials believes that a first-rate sustainability program isn’t the right way to do business; it’s the only way to do business. We invest considerably in reducing our environmental impact, such as by incorporating recycled materials into our asphalt production, and creating programs to support local communities, such as our growing roster of wildlife habitats on properties nationwide.  

Our environmental policy is to:  

comply, at a minimum, with all applicable environmental legislation and continually improve our environmental stewardship;

ensure that our employees and contractors respect environmental responsibilities;

proactively address the challenges and opportunities of climate change;

optimize our use of energy and resources through efficiency gains and recycling;

promote environmentally driven product and process innovation and new business opportunities; and

be good neighbors in the many communities in which we operate.
