Environmental Policy and Activities

The management and employees of SMART Technologies Inc. commit to continuously improving our environmental management system.

We will:
appreciate the natural environment and its fragility
comply with all regulatory statutes
foster awareness and prevention of pollution
recognize environmental aspects
encourage environmental responsibility from our suppliers
identify and minimize our internal pollution streams
use green processes where applicable

At SMART, being a responsible corporate citizen means abiding by our philosophy of protecting the environment while we conduct business. Each of our business locations is influenced by a corporate environmental policy that clearly states SMART’s position on environmental responsibility.

SMART promotes green processes in the development, assembly, packaging and delivery of our products. Every employee is encouraged to submit suggestions that will further reduce any negative environmental impact our company may be experiencing. We currently meet or exceed all federal, provincial and local environmental regulations, and we want to do more.

We hope you share in our desire to preserve our environment and safeguard the planet for future generations.

Environmental Activities

SMART consistently initiates improvements to our environmental practices. We have active recycling programs and waste-reduction initiatives in place at several of our locations. These programs include regularly recycling paper, cardboard and printer cartridges. Our manufacturing sites currently recycle all wood pallets or return them to suppliers. Much of our packaging materials for components is reusable and constantly cycles between our facilities and those of our suppliers.

We are investigating new initiatives such as a blue box program to recycle glass, metal and plastic materials and using more environmentally friendly products such as post-consumer paper and replacements for wood pallets.

These are only a few examples of what SMART is doing for the environment. We are committed to promoting the effective use of natural resources and reducing or eliminating environmental pollution by our company.
