About
Environmental, Health and Safety
Applied Materials is committed to conducting its business operations in a manner that sustains the environment and protects the health and safety of workers, customers and neighboring communities. The company's Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) programs are integral to Applied Materials' business results and industry leadership and include occupational and product safety, environmental engineering, natural resource conservation, prevention of illness and injury, and participation in development of industry standards for EHS.

Applied Materials added an exciting element to its commitment to the environment in 2006 by announcing its entry into the solar photovoltaic equipment market. The company’s solar strategy is to bring significant change to the industry by enabling lower cost-per-watt solutions for solar cell manufacturing —with the goal of making solar power a significant alternative source of global energy.

Applied Materials continues to expand its clean energy efforts, with its first solar production line announcement, followed by its purchases of clean, renewable energy and a 1.9 megawatt solar installation.
