Arthrex is committed to conducting our business in a manner that can contribute to 'sustainable development' of the earth, mankind, and companies. We at Arthrex believe that our success is not simply measured materially, but also on how effectively we operate ethically as a company. Our social responsibility includes insuring that we are mindful of the effect our corporate activity has on the earth and mankind. Based on this belief, we have prepared this Arthrex Green Policy. Our mission to help surgeons treat their patients better by contributing to safe and successful patient outcomes can not be accomplished if we ignore our social responsibility of stewardship of our resources. We strive to maintain customer satisfaction with the highest quality products developed in an environmentally sustainable way and create a working environment that supports these goals.
In furtherance of these goals, Arthrex is committed to:
- Promoting environmental impact reduction in all product development stages, product sales and corporate facilities.
- Complying with legal regulations, standards, and requirements.
- Educating employees on our corporate and individual responsibilities to maintain a sustainable environment.
- Improving our chemical substance management to reduce environmental risks.
- Requiring and educating our vendors on this Policy and our expectations of sustainable manufacturing.
- Actively participating in community activities to further this Policy.
