Ball’s Procurement organization is focused on helping Ball achieve its sustainability goals through:
- Supplier commitment to fulfilling Ball’s Supplier Guiding Principles, which set forth Ball’s expectations around business conduct, working conditions, employment, child labor, wages and hours, diversity, freedom of association, and environment;
- Working with suppliers to drive sustainability innovation in the industry through initiatives such as the Aluminum Stewardship Initiative and Cradle to Cradle certifications; and
- Including climate leadership, material health, resource efficiency and diversity and inclusion related metrics into all supplier contracts.
