SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT CRITERIA

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT CRITERIA

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT CRITERIA

The Purchasing department’s Total Cost of Ownership approach includes environmental, social, and ethical requirements in our specifications for our internal customers. There are steps we can take throughout a tire’s lifecycle to reduce its impact on natural resources, energy, and matter. Michelin takes simultaneous action in four areas during the tire’s life cycle to provide a combination of solutions that use resources more efficiently. The criteria are defined as part of the 4R – Reduce – Reuse – Recycle – Renew – Circular economy strategy used by Purchasing staff, in compliance with regulatory standards.
