Product Stewardship Policy

Johns Manville (JM) will never knowingly make or sell any product that cannot be manufactured and used safely when appropriate work practices and installation procedures are followed. In support of this Product Stewardship Policy JM will practice responsible and ethical product stewardship.

 
Specifically, JM will:
  • Design its products and manufacturing practices to protect human health and the environment.
  • Evaluate the potential health effects of new products and perform all appropriate testing.
  • Periodically review the risks associated with its products to determine if further evaluation is necessary.
  • Communicate to its work force, customers and appropriate parties:
    • The results of health and safety evaluations of its products;
    • The potential risks of products; and
    • Recommendations for risk reduction including work practices and engineering controls.
  • Comply with all applicable regulations and practices concerning product safety and risk communication in each country in which JM manufactures or sells products. If compliance with local regulations and practices would result in inadequate safety and risk communication, JM will further communicate product risks and risk reduction recommendations.
