Alamo Group’s overall mission is based upon developing and maintaining mutually beneficial relationships with our stakeholders: our investors, employees, suppliers, customers, and communities which come together to create our company’s value and purpose.

Alamo Group’s conservation and sustainability mission is:

• a commitment to reducing the environmental impact of our operations and products;
• utilizing natural resources as efficiently and as is practically possible;
• maintaining safe workplaces;
• encouraging workforce diversity at all levels;
• and applying the highest ethical and moral standards in all that we do.

Alamo Group is committed to conservation and sustainability for the long haul, and that requires sustained engagement with our stakeholders and adapting to their changing needs:

• For our investors, this commitment means that we provide sustainable risk-adjusted returns on their investment.
• For our customers, this obligation means that we develop safe, high-quality products that will meet their sustainability goals.
• For our suppliers, this responsibility entails engaging with them to help reduce the environmental impact and improve the resiliency of our supply chains.
• We engage our employees and communities where we work to advance biodiversity, provide inclusive opportunity, and improve quality of life.

“All of us at Alamo Group are committed to reducing the impact of our company’s operations on the environment, and the climate, while making a meaningful, positive social contribution to the communities where we operate. We have implemented a number of projects to reduce our consumption of natural resources, to minimize carbon emissions and other waste streams that we generate, and to make our workspaces safer for our employees. In recent years, we have been accelerating our investments in these areas not only because it’s the right thing to do, but also because it’s good for our employees, our families, our communities, and of course, it’s good for our bottom line as well. While we have much more to accomplish in these areas, we are proud of what we have accomplished to date through the commitment and creativity of our employees. As we look to the future, we will redouble our efforts and investment in the sustainability of our operations to improve corporate performance, enhance the lives of all of our stakeholders and to promote a healthier world for all humanity.”
