OUR ENVIRONMENT

The Bama Companies, Inc. is a unique organization. Because of our foundational principles, handed down from Alabama, Paul, and Lilah Marshall, we have fashioned a culture based upon the ideals of quality, continuous improvement, and respect for those around us. In light of these principles, we have put together and implemented an environmental sustainability plan that will help us to live out these ideals.

We are committed to reducing, reusing, and recycling our resources to decrease the environmental impact within our operations. The programs that we have implemented in each of these key areas have and will continue to foster a sustainable attitude within our organization, within our communities, and with our customers to work toward global sustainability.

To learn more about our sustainability plan and programs, see our 2009 Corporate Responsibility Report

According to our employees:
"We enjoy recycling at Bama. We are all talking about what we can recycle and remind each other about the effort. It gives us a common cause for something good."
Coza Huffman

"Being a steward of the environment isn't always the most cost-effective option, but it's the right thing to do."
Kimberly Joyce

"Sustainability means more to me now than when I joined the Bama team. I thought it meant to maintain but we are actually cutting usage, reducing waste and recycling. Bama makes a difference in the world by reducing our carbon footprint and by being a good corporate citizen and setting an example for our employees."
Maurice Lowry

"There have been several significant achievements in the sustainability program so far, but the best was the first step- having the leadership and the company philosophy to begin this journey."
