Designing for
The Environment
Our Strengths
- Developing innovative sustainable design solutions while delivering outstanding customer- and brand-focused products
- Developing materials that involve a less resource-intensive manufacturing process and do not result in as much end-of-life (EoL) waste
- Educating employees, supply chain partners and stakeholders about the benefits of sustainable materials and circular economy processes
- Creating end-markets for waste and other discarded materials that would otherwise go to landfills or incinerators
- Adopting construction and manufacturing processes that minimize resource consumption and promote circularity
Our Opportunities
- Finding the right tools and methodologies to measure environmental impacts of our materials and products
- Identifying markets for repurposing opportunities, such as for plastics and metals
- Reducing GM operational water intensity through innovative methods
