THE MOEN COMMITMENT TO CONSERVATION

At Moen Incorporated, we realize the importance of both water conservation and waste reduction. That's why we have been working on programs to protect our environment since 1982, a long-standing commitment that has resulted in industry-leading sustainability practices.
Moen Incorporated has instituted programs to address all aspects of environmental management in an effort to improve our processes, such as manufacturing, transportation and procurement.
Pollution prevention, renewable energy and other environmental initiatives are a few ways we look to lessen our impact on the Earth.

Highlights of efforts that extend beyond creating efficient products include:

RECYCLING Moen recycles 90% of all metal, scrap and manufacturing by-products (oils and solvents). In addition, glass, toner and printer cartridges, cardboard, plastic bottles and aluminum cans in our facilities are recycled.	WATER USAGE In 2008, Moen plans to reduce the water consumption by reusing 70% of all water used in product testing. Moen has also installed water filtration systems in all of our facilities to reduce plastic bottle consumption and waste.	PARTNERSHIPS Moen is proud to team with the U.S. and Canada Green Building Councils, partnerships designed to conserve the water supply and promote water efficiency. We also work cooperatively with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to comply with conservation guidelines and regulations.	PAPER AND PACKAGING We are dedicated to continuous improvements in packaging and literature production and practices.
