Our Sustainability Vision

COS is committed to be a sustainable company.  We are engaging our employees, vendors and customers to sell and purchase sustainable and adaptable business solutions which will protect and restore our environment, create economic value, and support and strengthen our community.

Our Sustainability Policy

Striving for optimum sustainability is a core value. We will be an example and operate our business in such a way that our environment is not compromised for future generations.  To this end, we will commit to the following:

 We will use education and innovation to promote environmental responsibility in all of our product categories to support the design and construction of more sustainable buildings, offices and workspaces.

 We will continuously improve our operational performance, not only internally, but also throughout our supply chain, with a focus on preventing pollution, reducing waste and reducing consumption of non-renewable resources.

 We will use benchmarked performance targets, conduct regular audits and annually report our environmental performance.

 We will be a proactive, learning organization, continually adapting our practices and behaviors to new developments in products, technology, health and environmental science.

 We will meet or exceed all applicable legal requirements and other government and industry guidelines related to all of the environmental aspects of our organization.

We recognize our responsibility as a company, and we will work in harmony with the communities in which we operate and the markets we serve. Our organization’s owners, leaders and associates have pledged their support to our Policy of Sustainability.  We will also communicate and promote acceptance of this policy to everyone working with, or on, the company’s behalf as well.  This policy will form the framework for our activities, education, services and decision-making processes for our company, as well as the people we serve.
