At GW , we believe sustainability is about more than simply having solar panels on the roof
As the interview nears an end , Jay discusses the role of sustainability within GW . “ At GW , we believe sustainability is about more than simply having solar panels on the roof . Sustainability comprises different aspects such as people , place , product , and process . In terms of people , sustainability means investing in our people and creating an environment where they want to stay and would even recommend as a good place to come to work . Then , place – which includes facilities – is the aspect of sustainability most people focus on . It is about ensuring our work environment is eco-friendly , which we do by paying a premium on using green electricity tariffs and by reclaiming 99.99 percent of our sand . We also try to reuse as much material as possible by remelting and reusing it . To be energy efficient , all our major electrical appliances are locked to ensure they are not operating during downtime . In terms of product sustainability , GW works with aluminum , which is notoriously eco-friendly as it is one of the easier metals to reuse ,” he concludes .
By leveraging its extensive experience , and fostering innovation and partnership , GW is well positioned to drive sustainable technology forward within the automotive industry . ■
