ESG Strategy
Apex ESG Strategy
The Company has established an ESG strategy, the principles of which are set out below. Benchmarking and achievement of measurable improvement in ESG metrics is carried out on a quarterly basis against ESG KPIs established by the HSS-ESG Committee. ESG KPI performance is an integral part of management’s annual performance compensation. In addition, at the ownership level, Apex participates in comprehensive periodic ESG questionnaire and assessment carried out by a specialized consulting firm that assesses all Bluewater portfolio companies. One key performance metric is measurable and continuous reduction in CO2 emissions. As examples of the Company’s commitment to operating in an environmentally conscious manner and reducing CO2 emission levels, solar panels are employed at multiple locations to provide power to production equipment and reduce or eliminate the need for diesel fuel.
