FULLY-FOCUSED ON
RESPONSIBLE MINING
We conduct business responsibly because this is the only way to do business. Long before environmental, sustainability, and governance [ESG] was a fundamental corporate conversation, Covia was leading the way with a vigorous social responsibility commitment to our team, communities, and planet. This legacy continues in all business segments. For example, our Canada nepheline syenite plant (NSO) is the fourth-longest standing member of the Wildlife Habitat Council with gold certification beginning 1996. In addition to an environmental pledge, the staff donates time, talent, and funds to actively support our local communities.
