The ARAMARK Commitment to the Environment

ARAMARK is committed to not only providing outstanding custodial services to Oregon State University, but also protecting our environment. We applaud and support the efforts of OSU and their desire to lessen the impact of daily operations on the environment. In conjunction with what we have implemented using Oregon’s Natural Step Processes, ARAMARK’s environmental stewardship program is called “Green Thread.” It is a thread connecting the present with the future.

At ARAMARK, we don’t see sustainability as a movement—not a single one, anyway. Rather, sustainability is a series of actions, a belief system that connects our daily practices on your campus. It is our commitment to ensure that the actions we take and the services we provide are always environmentally responsible. At OSU, we will apply our resources to maintain environmentally conscious operational practices and to develop new solutions in support of institution-wide environmental stewardship. There is a green thread running through everything we do, and it leads back to the Earth we leave behind.
