The Meaning of
"Sustainability" (video/report)

Sustainable development meets the needs of the
present generation without compromising the ability
of future generations to meet their needs.

Sustainability as a business approach creates
long-term shareholder value by embracing
opportunities, and managing risks from economic,
environmental and social developments.

Sustainability and social responsibility combine in a
concept whereby organizations take responsibility for
the impact of their activities on customers, employees,
shareholders, communities and the environment.

Camfil Farr has a long and successful track record in
the pursuit of green and sustainable strategies.
Developments as diverse as Hiflo Green, Ecopleat
Green, Life Cycle Costing tools, Opakfil Green,
Camcarb Green, the SAVER analysis tool and Energy
Cost Indexing illustrate a decades-long commitment
to environmental principles and practices, and
environment-driven decision-making.

The Camfil Farr Sustainability
Model is Threefold:

Social – We are committed to health preservation
through controlled indoor air quality in public
residential and work environments, the safety
of materials used in filter construction, and
cleanliness of ventilation installations.

Environmental – Camfil Farr reduces greenhouse
gas emissions through energy-efficient filters,
and reduces environmental impact through good
manufacturing practices and by supplying filters
that perform to their rated efficiency throughout
their service life.

Economic – Our Life Cycle Cost Reduction Strategy
is a powerful tool that helps customers achieve
greatest air filtration value, at lowest total cost.
And because Camfil Farr filters perform at their
rated efficiency through the filter’s life, they
directly contribute to higher overall productivity
and fewer days of sick leave.
