Virginia's E3 program recognizes organizations with fully implemented environmental management systems, pollution prevention programs, and demonstrated performance. O’Sullivan has a solid track record of reducing emissions from our manufacturing facilities. Emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) have been reduced by 97%, improving air quality in the surrounding communities. O'Sullivan has also reduced landfill waste by 71% through more efficient operations and increased recycling efforts. In a single year over 12 million pounds of reprocessed plastic is purchased and used to make new products at O’Sullivan.

Each year O’Sullivan evaluates its environmental performance and sets new and more challenging goals. There is a multi-year plan in place to provide a framework for long-term goals to reduce environmental impacts. At the manufacturing facilities in Winchester, Virginia a structured environmental management system is in place to guide the company’s activities. The system ensures compliance with all laws and regulations while making sure that all environmental goals are met.

O’Sullivan Films is a proud member of the Valley AIRCorps, a business outreach program that creates and nurtures clean air partnerships with Winchester-Frederick County businesses, spreads the word about our air quality challenges, and provides valuable public health networking. The center of the program is membership in the Air Quality Action Day Network – a network to inform the public of health risks on Code Orange Action Days and to take simple steps to reduce smog-inducing emissions. O’Sullivan also displays Healthy Air Zone signs in facility parking lots to encourage all visitors to turn off all car engines when parked.
