Rohm and Haas has a long
history of dedication to environmental and
social responsibility― meeting,
exceeding or even pioneering industry and societal
standards; and last year was no exception.
While
this traditional approach has contributed positively
to the success of the Company and society over
the years, we entered into an exciting new phase
of our sustainability journey in 2008.
This report
reflects an abbreviated look at our sustainability
priorities and progress in 2007. As we note in
other areas of this report, 2008 marked a milestone
in our sustainable journey with a comprehensive,
strategic effort, in partnership with The Natural
Step International, to establish a compelling
Vision and Six Commitments that will drive our
sustainability profile for years to come. Our
future sustainability reports will embody these
recently adopted Commitments; in the meantime,
this 2007 report provides insight into our ongoing
progress on many sustainability measures, and
updates key performance metrics we have tracked
for a number of years.
