6 Our Guiding Principles No matter where we are in the world, there are five values at the heart of everything we do. These values are the foundation for our business, our sustainability journey and our path forward. PUT PEOPLE FIRST Our global workforce is the key to our success. The safety of our team members is critical to us, which is why our Total Safety Culture has become integrated into all facets of our operating policy. This framework puts the health and safety of our team first and promotes a healthy working environment. We consider a diverse and inclusive workforce to be essential to our day-to-day operations. We must welcome and encourage different points of view and backgrounds to strengthen team spirit and improve the products and services we offer to our customers. We foster an inclusive environment for our team members, allowing our employees to have an experience of belonging, to be authentic in their interactions and to contribute to a higher level of performance. We always strive to build a cohesive and resilient organization. GOVERN ETHICALLY & RESPONSIBLY We operate in the spirit and letter of the law, upholding high ethical standards wherever we conduct business. We maintain and regularly review our governance principles, policies and practices for the purpose of meeting or exceeding current legal requirements and commercial best practices. OPERATE SUSTAINABLY Sustainability is ingrained in every aspect of our business, including how we produce our products, how we treat our team members and how we interact with our suppliers and the community around us. We are proud of our continued progress in reducing our use of materials and resources and decreasing energy consumption even as our manufacturing footprint grows and production volumes increase. Our Twenty by 30 initiative sets our sights higher and continuously challenges us to assess every aspect of our business for potential improvement. COMMITMENT TO QUALITY AND SAFETY We are committed to the satisfaction and success of our customers. This includes continuously improving the cost-effectiveness and performance of our products and processes, placing a particular emphasis on innovation and maintaining strong standards of consumer safety. We deliver on these commitments through our One Crown Standard, which ensures the highest global safety standards and works to eliminate Chemicals of Concern (COC) in the manufacturing process. Our integrated, global approach to continuous improvement recognizes the interaction and impact every function and activity has on the quality of our products. INNOVATE EVERY DAY Maintaining our position as a top global supplier requires constant innovation, determination and a deep understanding of customer and market needs. We remain inspired by our founder, William Painter, who revolutionized the beverage industry with the invention of the crown cork (now known as the bottle cap) and driven by a desire to help customers make a meaningful impact with their brands through packaging. We strive to develop technologies that change how consumers view, use and engage with metal packaging, including colors, designs and advanced finishes that strengthen brand recognition and heighten consumer appeal. Our Transit Packaging Division is also focused on innovation, developing solutions for reducing and reusing packaging materials as part of a long-term strategy to optimize efficiencies and enhance the sustainability of the supply chain. In addition to the products and processes themselves, we aim to be innovative in our sustainability strategy, constantly striving for better, more efficient ways to do what we do every day.
