Environmental Performance in Xerox Facilities

About Environmental Performance Results
Data in this section on environmental performance represent total quantities for Xerox’s manufacturing, research, development and equipment recovery/recycle operations in 11 countries. Energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions are reported across all our operations. Starting in 2002, these data – with the exception of solid waste figures – do not include Xerox office equipment manufacturing operations, which were outsourced in late 2001 to Flextronics, an electronics manufacturing company. Unless otherwise noted, all numbers represent worldwide totals and are reported in generally accepted international metrics.

Xerox’s Major Sites Recognized for Improving Environmental Management

All of Xerox’s major U.S. facilities have earned membership in the National Environmental Performance Track, a program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for participating facilities that achieve top environmental performance.

Performance Track, which includes five enrolled Xerox sites, recognizes facilities that voluntarily exceed regulatory requirements, implement systems to improve environmental management,

 

work with their communities, and set three-year goals for even better environmental performance. Only facilities with a record of sustained regulatory compliance and a history of environmental achievements are eligible to participate in the program.

As part of its application to Performance Track, the Xerox sites committed themselves to decreasing energy consumption, increasing solid waste recycling, eliminating hazardous materials from products and using less water. The Webster, N.Y., facility, for example, made a commitment to reduce hazardous waste by 42% over three years.
