Applied Materials’ latest Sustainability Report demonstrates the company’s continued dedication to, and wide-ranging progress towards, its ESG strategy and commitments.
Applied Materials recently published its latest Sustainability Report, covering our most recent environmental and social impact programs and results. We’ve been reporting on social responsibility and environmental matters since 2005.

Our latest report marks several substantial steps forward for Applied in each of these areas. Here are some of the highlights:
All these initiatives reinforce Applied’s vision to Make Possible a Better Future.
As in our previous report, we delivered an Annex with data tables and complete GRI and SASB indexes. These enable outside agencies to quantitatively evaluate Applied’s many achievements in environmental, social and governance (ESG) initiatives.
For the first time ever, many of Applied’s environmental and social data have been assured by an outside consultant, ERM/CVS. This includes our Scope 1 and 2 emissions.
Our Sustainability Report illustrates the fact that ESG requires great teamwork from across the company. The ESG team consists of leaders from our business units, Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS), community affairs, HR, IR, legal, quality and supply chain.
We’re encouraged by the company’s continued alignment and dedication to Make Possible a Better Future, and we invite you to read more about our journey here.
