Making sustainability an integral part of the way we do business is an essential element of our strategy to build a globally competitive company and deliver value to shareholders over the long term. We are committed to enhancing our environmental performance and ensuring the responsible use of resources in our manufacturing processes, particularly with regard to fiber, energy and water.

AbitibiBowater’s approach to sustainability also entails operating in a responsible manner that reflects societal values and takes into account the interests of our people, our communities, our customers and other key stakeholders. With respect to people, the safety of AbitibiBowater employees is paramount. We strive to be a good employer, neighbor, partner and supplier, as well as a source of innovative, best-in-class products that offer environmental benefits.

Our sustainability roadmap has been designed to guide us in better integrating sustainability into all aspects of AbitibiBowater’s operations, while providing a structured process for continuous improvement. The roadmap focuses on four key areas: climate change, responsible fiber sourcing, product stewardship and stakeholder engagement.
