SASB Index
For the first time, Axalta is using the Sustainable Accounting Standards Board (SASB) Standards for the chemicals industry to provide interested stakeholders a guide to where this information is included in our report. While we used the SASB Standards for our industry to identify potential content to include in the report, we are not yet fully reporting against each indicator. Several of the indicators for our industry are not applicable to Axalta, or we believe are not as material to our business success as the ones identified in our sustainability materiality assessment process. We will continue to evaluate our use of the SASB indicators in future reports.
