The I in EnLIST represents IMPACT. Our sustainability mission statement states that Universal Fibers will embrace our role as environmental stewards and measure success with clear metrics, independent validation and services to humanity. Our Impact point highlights our goals to measure and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, energy use, water conservation and waste diversion.

The S in EnLIST represents SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY. At Universal Fibers, we are people. We are one community – locally, regionally, globally. We are guided by sustainability, resource conservation, safety and security. We generate economic, social and environmental conditions that allow people and communities to thrive. We know that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. We have a purpose that extends far beyond what we create. This ethic influences everything we do – from the products we deliver to the partners with whom we align to the investments we make to the communities we support to the opportunities we explore. We strive for continuous improvement, leading to measurable annual results and a purposeful, successful and positive impact on our global community.

The T in EnLIST represents TRANSPARENCY. Universal Fibers believes transparency begins with providing our customers the information they need to be successful and sustainable. In 2016, Universal Fibers created its first Environmental Product Declaration to share the environmental performance of its Thrive® product with the market. Also launched was our first certified Environmental Label from GreenCircle Certified®, highlighting our environmental performance across multiple attributes. Transparency is ever evolving, and Universal Fibers is working diligently to provide customers accurate and thorough material ingredient information using WAP Sustainability’s Value Chain Chemical Management System (VCCM®) to support chemical and ingredient transparency efforts.
