Carte International is committed to protecting the environment and ensuring that our operations are sustainable.

Sustainability means having the least impact on the environment by using natural resources efficiently.

Sustainable manufacturing promotes minimizing or eliminating production and processing waste through eco-efficient practices.

Carte’s sustainable goals align with Lean Manufacturing and include reducing our environmental footprint (greenhouse gas emissions) and conserving resources such as raw materials, labour, and energy.

Carte has implemented sustainable practices into our business including minimizing energy use, installing plumbing fixtures and equipment that use less water, increasing the insulation or U-value of windows and doors, limiting solid waste through recycling and re-use, and properly controlling and disposing hazardous production by-products, such as scrap oil and paint sludge.
