Corporate Social Responsibility

SNF Canada adheres to a strict policy of its parent SNF Group regarding sustainable development, environmental issues, and community involvement.

SNF Canada’s mission is to develop, produce and market polymers for water treatment, oil industry, mining, and paper industries while keeping environmental sustainability as one of our top priorities.

In all our activities, we are committed to minimizing pollution and waste. We are constantly improving our processes to ensure environmental impact is minimized. Processes that consume large quantities of water have been minimized, thus reducing specific water consumption sevenfold for each product in the span of 10 years. Rinse water used in production processes, for example, is partly recirculated to achieve a 70 % reduction in water consumption.

Our products also contribute to a safe and healthy environment by helping our customers treat waste, discharge clean effluent, and supply pure drinking water.

Sustainable Development

SNF Canada ensures that all environmental laws, regulations and codes of conduct are complied with. In all of our activities our mandate is to:

  • Conceive safe, new, and efficient technologies which respect the environment
  • Reduce the environmental footprint of our production
  • Minimize the production of all forms of waste, while handling unavoidable waste in an ecologically responsible manner
  • Preserve natural resources through the efficient utilization of energy during production methods
  • Ensure all SNF Canada personnel are trained and cognizant with respect to our policies on industrial safety and environmental protection
