Our efforts to reduce waste extend across our manufacturing facilities and supply chain, guided primarily by a Solid and Hazardous Waste Management Standard. The Standard details how our facilities should handle, manage, recycle and dispose of waste materials, and works in hand with BMS’ Internal Facilities Management suppliers. In addition, the BMS Go Green and Green Labs initiatives provide recommendations on recycling and pollution reduction and prevention programs.
As part of our latest commitments to environmental responsibility, we have committed to achieve zero waste to landfill by 2040. We are in the process of improving our pollution prevention and waste minimization programs to better manage our current and future waste streams. The revised and improved programs will incorporate how we purchase, use, recycle and dispose of materials from the very beginning of the lifecycle. We have implemented programs to drive the diversion of our waste destined for landfill to more environmentally friendly options, including waste-to-energy facilities, composting options, increased recycling of single-use technology bio-bags, and other forward-thinking material management technologies.
We regularly engage with our suppliers on sustainability initiatives, especially on issues such as:
