We’re doing our part to divert waste from the landfill. That’s why we’re refining processes at our manufacturing and distribution facilities.
Across Stanley Black & Decker, our practices encourage waste minimization, reusing and recycling wherever we can — with the ultimate goal of achieving a 100% diversion rate across all our manufacturing and distribution facilities worldwide by 2040.
Our efforts to reduce landfill waste globally continue as we identify and deploy strategies aligned with our priority impact objective of achieving Zero Waste to Landfill (ZWTL).
Pursuing Zero Waste to Landfill Status
We are working to achieve this goal through a multi-year strategy, collaborating cross-functionally with our EHS, facilities and sourcing partners, as well as key waste and recycling suppliers.
We continue to make incremental progress in diverting waste from landfills, relying on the sharing of best practices, management system enhancements and third-party support and assurance.

“By encouraging waste minimization throughout our manufacturing sites and distribution facilities, we are able to improve the efficiency of our operations. This has led to 40% of our sites achieving Zero Waste to Landfill status and we’re excited to continue building on this progress in pursuit of 100% Zero Waste to Landfill across our operations, by 2040.”
