Saint-Gobain strives to be the world leader in the habitat and construction markets, offering innovative solutions to today’s critical challenges of growth, energy, and the environment.
Our vision in the UK and Ireland is to be the leading designer, manufacturer and distributor of construction products and solutions for a more sustainable future.
Sustainability is at the core of Saint-Gobain Group’s habitat and construction strategy, and our commitment to sustainable development comes from the very top. Chairman & Chief Executive Officer, Pierre-André de Chalendar, firmly believes that more sustainable forms of construction are essential to address the environmental challenges facing society, but also represent an outstanding opportunity for Saint-Gobain.
“Saint-Gobain’s strategic positioning in the habitat and construction markets means we must be irreproachable when it comes to environmental issues and sustainable development.” (Pierre-André de Chalendar, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer, Saint-Gobain Group)
Our strategic positioning means that we must truly walk the talk. Rather than simply complying with regulations, we take a highly committed stance on minimising the environmental impact of our operations, protecting the health and safety of our employees, and making proper allowance for labour and social issues in all of our business activities. In short, we want to be the reference in sustainable habitat and construction.
The Group’s response to the challenges of sustainable development is embodied by the Group’s Principles of Conduct and Action, which all Saint-Gobain employees are expected to embrace:
• Principles of Conduct – Professional commitment, respect for others, integrity, loyalty and solidarity are the fundamental values that unite corporate leaders and employees and shape each team member’s conduct.
• Principles of Action – Respect for the law, caring for the environment, worker health and safety and employee rights guide the actions of all corporate leaders and employees in the performance of their duties.
