Alam Steel is committed to continuous improvement throughout our organization, focusing not only on strong economic performance, but also on responsible environmental and social performance. Just as we are committed to providing quality service and products to our customers and value to our stakeholders we are also committed to environmental leadership and contributions to our communities. Our corporate sustainability practices include the promotion of economic development through consistent profitability and job creation; environmental stewardship through energy conservation initiatives and reducing/minimizing pollution; and social well being by instituting high quality labor, health and safety standards. We also strive to be good corporate citizens in our business communities.

Consistent with our decentralized operating structure, we believe the most effective and efficient way to preserve and protect our vital natural resources is on a local basis, where each of our facilities is responsible for communication, implementation and adherence to the Company-wide policy to preserve and protect the environment and comply with environmental laws, regulations and the legitimate interests of our communities.
 
Alam systematically evaluates the performance of our companies in that regard.
Our business, by its nature, does not have a significant impact on the environment. We do not consume large amounts of energy nor do we create meaningful amounts of air or water pollution, since we do not make the metal we sell and do not paint, coat, or manufacture any end products. We have, however, found ways within our business to consume less fuel by keeping our trucks well maintained and in compliance with current emission standards. Additionally, we use natural or energy efficient lighting in many of our plants, recycle all metal and wood used in our operations and use propane fuel to operate forklifts. We have contributed to our customer’s sustainability requirements by providing them with steel from mills that recycle scrap and reducing the carbon footprint in the transportation of steel to the customer.  

We constantly look for other such ways to help minimize the use of natural resources and the impact of our business operations on the environment.
