We understand the concerns about protecting the
earth's environment. Sherwin-Williams commitment
reaches beyond supplying environmentally friendly
paints. It extends throughout our laboratories,
manufacturing facilities and distribution systems.
We are continually looking to develop new products
and procedures within our organization to reduce
the impact we have on nature. We've pioneered
the use of environmentally-preferable solutions
in our business practices and we are putting our
green ideas to work.
* We use sustainable raw materials, like soy
and sunflower oil in our paints.
* We've reduced the amount of solvent in our formulations,
so the vapors being emitted into the atmosphere
are more environmentally friendly.
* New techniques in our manufacturing processes
have helped produce less waste and we've implemented
energy efficient methods in our plants.
* We've streamlined national distribution processes,
helping to conserve fuel, energy and other natural
resources.
* We've formulated many of our coatings to clean
easily and to resist mildew and harmful bacteria
improving the indoor and outdoor environments.

 Sherwin-Williams
Logo
Our historical logo is one of the most recognized
company logos in existence. Created in the late
1800's, the logo's purpose was to represent the
company's desire to help beautify and protect
the buildings of the world. It was a symbol of
a young company's enthusiasm, idealism and hope
regarding its future and the possibility for achievement
that hovered on the nation's horizon. Over the
years our "Cover the Earth" logo has
become a figurative emblem signifying integrity
and service.
