ST. PAUL, Minn., June 27, 2025 /3BL/ — Scotch-Brite™, America’s #1-selling scrub sponge brand, introduces National Shine Brite Day, a yearly celebration that invites people everywhere to see cleaning in a new light – shifting the mindset from a task on a to-do list into a way to express yourself, refresh your space and feel good doing it.

National Shine Brite Day is part of the brand’s “Brite Side of Clean” campaign, which launched earlier this spring to usher in a fresh era of cleaning, one that centers on joy, self-expression and the satisfaction of a job well done. Featuring an energetic 30-second spot set to Outkast’s iconic early-2000s anthem ‘So Fresh, So Clean,’ the campaign invites everyone to dance through their chores and transform cleaning from a task into a powerful act of self-expression and positivity.

To help kick off the celebration, Scotch-Brite has teamed up with Ally Love, Peloton Instructor, VP of instructor strategy and development, and on-air Today show contributor, as a Clean Partner. Known for her energy, motivation and love of movement, Ally is inspiring people to reframe their routines by pairing cleaning with music, dance and the kind of positive vibes that turn even the smallest tasks into mini celebrations.

“Cleaning is part of my daily routine – not just to reset my space; it’s an act of mindfulness, movement and joy,” said Love. “My process starts with my favorite playlist – it keeps the energy up and makes the experience more enjoyable and fun. I love seeing the physical transformation from messy to clean – it’s a visual affirmation that my actions matter, that small acts have big impact. National Shine Brite Day is a reminder that cleaning is more than a task, it’s an opportunity to celebrate the creativity and pride that comes with a clean and refreshed space.”

June 26 holds a special significance for the brand as it marks the anniversary of Scotch-Brite’s first appearance on shelves in 1958. Nearly seven decades later, the brand continues to be a pioneer in the cleaning category with innovative solutions that brighten homes and lives.

“National Shine Brite Day is about more than creating a clean space – it’s about choosing to find joy in the process,” says Joe Paul, chief marketing officer, 3M Consumer Business Group. “Scotch-Brite is committed to providing consumers with creative, sensorial solutions to cleaning – for every day and every mess.”

Whether it’s the satisfaction of a dramatic before-and-after, the thrill of discovering a clever cleaning hack, or the joy of dancing your way through chores – Scotch-Brite believes cleaning should feel good. The brand encourages everyone to find the sparkle, share the fun and help others see the “brite side” too!

DÜSSELDORF /3BL/ – Henkel, a global leader in adhesives, sealants and functional coatings, and Synthomer, a world-leading supplier of high-performance, highly-specialized polymers and ingredients, have announced a strategic partnership and supply agreement focused on enabling carbon emission reductions in Henkel’s TECHNOMELT^® hot melt adhesive product portfolio for the European, Indian, Middle Eastern and African markets. This collaboration highlights both companies’ leadership in advancing sustainable adhesives through innovative collaborations along the value chain.

This partnership follows Synthomer’s recent launch of CLIMA-branded products. Products with this designation, like their REGALITE^TM line, deliver at least a 20% reduction cradle-to-gate in the product carbon footprint by using renewable energy in the production process. Henkel and Synthomer have jointly developed a framework that links renewable energy use directly to specific adhesive products, enabling measurable reductions in carbon emissions.

Henkel and Synthomer’s partnership is built on a mutual commitment to sustainability. Henkel aims to reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 30 percent by 2030 (base year 2021), with the goal of becoming net-zero by 2045. To support this, it is incorporating raw materials with reduced process emissions footprint into adhesive formulations, helping lower Scope 3 emissions while maintaining high quality performance. Synthomer is contributing by reducing emissions from manufacturing operations, with a goal to cut absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions 47 percent by 2030, using 2019 as the base year in line with its Science-Based Targets goals.

Synthomer’s improved manufacturing approach leverages renewable electricity, biogas and process optimization, significantly lowering the carbon footprint of their products. These carbon reductions are measured through Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) reporting, which follows ISO14067 standards and the Together for Sustainability (TfS) guidelines. The PCF methodology used in this collaboration is being externally validated by TÜV SÜD, adding a strong layer of verification and credibility.

“As industry leaders in the adhesives market, we share the responsibility to drive meaningful change,“ said Pernille Lind Olsen, Corporate Senior Vice President, Adhesive Technologies Henkel. „By partnering with suppliers like Synthomer who are equally committed to transparency, innovation, and verifiable climate action, we’re not just reducing emissions, we’re redefining what leadership looks like in our industry.”

“We are proud to support Henkel and their customers with novel adhesive solutions based on a significantly reduced carbon footprint. Our capability is based on our broad portfolio of high performing adhesive ingredients, a global production and development network paired with a relentless passion for innovation and sustainability. We continue to engage with partners to create sustainable value chains and reduce carbon emissions on our planet.” says Stephan Lynen, Synthomer’s President for Adhesive Solutions.

Hot melt adhesives are used in a variety of industries and applications from packaging and consumer goods to electronics and automotive. The integration of Synthomer’s CLIMA resins into Henkel’s TECHNOMELT^® hot melt adhesive portfolio will lower environmental impact while maintaining the same high-quality solutions the market expects from Henkel. TECHNOMELT^® adhesives are trusted for reliability, quality and proven results across a variety of applications.

The shared focus on sustainable product development and carbon footprint transparency highlights how strategic partnerships can drive progress and establish industry standards.

Honest & Ethical Conduct

Transparency, integrity, and trust are thecornerstones of how we do business.

We hold ourselves to the highest ethical standards, ensuring our actions reflect professionalism and transparency. By continually evolving our practices, we stay ahead in a fast-changing regulatory world, always striving to do what’s right.

Business Ethics

We implement the following policies and procedures to guide our business conduct:

• Code of Business Conduct & Ethics (Code): Our Code serves as a guiding framework for employees, officers, and directors, outlining the principles and responsibilities underpinning our ethical practices.
   
• Human Rights: In 2024, we published a Human Rights Policy and updated our Anti-Slavery Policy strengthening our approach to combatting modern slavery.
   
• Ethics Helpline: Our Ethics Helpline remains a trusted resource for reporting violations of company policies, our Code, or the law.
   
• Whistleblower Protections: Our Speak Up Policy underscores our dedication to protecting whistleblowers, ensuring everyone feels safe to report concerns without fear of retaliation.

87/100: Through our annual GoDaddy Voice Survey, we achieved an average score of 87 out of 100 on the question, “If I encounter an unethical situation, I feel comfortable reporting issues regarding ethics and compliance.”

Education & Training

We are dedicated to ensuring our workforce is well-equipped to uphold our ethical standards through comprehensive trainings. As a part of their onboarding process, new GoDaddy employees complete trainings which enforce awareness of and compliance with the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. These include foundational topics such as anti-harassment and anti-discrimination; data protection and security awareness; and social engineering alongside targeted training on anti-trust, anti-bribery, and anti-corruption for specific roles. Annual refresher trainings are also required for select topics.

When vendors and contractors begin working with us, we require them to complete ethics trainings on our Code, data protection, security awareness, and other topics, where relevant. Refresher trainings on select topics may also be required annually.

Corporate Governance

Strong corporate governance is the foundation of our business strategy, generating long-term value and maintaining the trust of our stakeholders. Our Board provides oversight on the long-term strategic, financial, and organizational goals of the company. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines reflect the Board’s commitment to a system of governance which enhances corporate responsibility and accountability, and assist the Board in implementing effective corporate governance practices. For more information on the responsibilities of our Board and its committees, please review our Corporate Governance Guidelines, committee charters, and Proxy Statement on our Investor Relations Financials page and Governance page.

In 2024, our Board appointed Graham Smith as a new independent director, effective June 26, 2024. For more information on our Board, refer to our 2025 Proxy Statement.

Risk Management

Our Board is responsible for overseeing GoDaddy’s enterprise-wide risks, the formation of our long-term strategic, financial, and organizational goals, and the plans designed to achieve such goals. The Board and its committees also oversee strategic, legal, regulatory, financial, management, and operational risks.

The ARC Team assists our Leadership Team in defining metrics to monitor such risks and respond proactively, helping the business navigate risks while staying focused on strategic execution and innovation.

Government & Policy Engagement

Our Corporate and Government Affairs Team serves as an advocate for our customers and small businesses, championing their interests in key legislative, public policy, and regulatory arenas. By engaging with policymakers, lawmakers, and other stakeholders, the team highlights GoDaddy’s role in the industry and our support for a fair and open digital ecosystem.

As both a Registry and a Registrar, we actively participate in Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) working groups and community leadership bodies. These engagements shape the policies governing and managing the Domain Name System, impacting our products, services, and how they are utilized by our customers. The team also ensures fair and transparent resolution of complaints and information requests from ICANN and third parties, covering a wide range of domain name-related issues.

As a part of our commitment to honest and ethical conduct, the Corporate and Government Affairs Team detailed GoDaddy’s standards for political contributions, activities, and lobbying by our directors, officers, and employees in a publicly available policy.

ENGAGING WITH REGULATORS TO PROTECT OUR CUSTOMERS

GoDaddy actively engages with institutions and standards bodies to share the potential impact decisions have on our customers’ registration experience, data protection, and overall online presence. Our engagement is important to our customers and our business as proposed legislation can at times result in unnecessary domain name suspensions, confusing customer communications, and increased exposure to phishing and other online threats involving personal data. GoDaddy also works through ICANN and Internet Infrastructure Coalition (i2Coalition), and in collaboration with other industry associations representing internet infrastructure companies, to engage on matters important to protecting registrants and promoting a secure and predictable online environment.

Lenovo released its FY 2024/25 Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Report, detailing the company’s progress toward its 2030 emissions reduction targets and reaffirming its long-term ambition to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, aligned to the Science Based Targets initiative. As the first generation of ESG key performance indicators approaches completion, Lenovo remains on track across many key objectives, making this year a pivotal moment in its sustainability journey.

The report outlines how Lenovo is accelerating environmental progress through its participation in the circular economy, including the continued use of closed-loop recycled materials in its products. Lenovo also continues to empower customers with sustainability services that facilitate repair, recycling, and reuse, helping extend product lifecycles and keeping materials in circulation.

This year’s report reflects a growing recognition of Lenovo’s efforts, with the company earning Platinum Recognition from EcoVadis, an AAA rating from MSCI ESG Ratings, and the Gold Award from the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (HKICPA) for Best Corporate Governance and ESG. Additionally, Lenovo was recently ranked #8 in Gartner’s Top 25 Global Supply Chain, with an ESG Score of 9/10. These achievements underscore Lenovo’s commitment to transparent, credible progress.

Lenovo’s social impact continues to scale globally. In 2024, it was again named a Best Workplace for People with Disabilities by Disability:IN in the United States, while expanding this recognition to the United Kingdom and Brazil through the global application of best practices. The company’s commitment to community engagement was also evident during its annual Love on Month of Service, which saw a record-breaking 44% increase in people reached through volunteerism by Lenovo employees around the world.

“This year marks a significant milestone for Lenovo’s ESG journey,” said Dave Carroll, Lenovo SVP, Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Responsibility Officer, who succeeded Laura Quatela in March 2025. “With our first generation of key performance indicators nearing completion, we’re proud of the progress we’ve made and are focused on building the foundation for our next chapter of ESG leadership.”

In governance, Lenovo continues to reinforce its Smarter AI for All vision through a strengthened internal policy framework. In 2024, the company introduced a comprehensive AI governance policy aligned with commitments made to the Canadian Government, UNESCO, Cercle InterL, and most recently the European Commission. This follows the appointment of Doug Fisher who added Chief AI Officer to his Chief Security Officer role, further embedding responsible innovation across the business.

Looking ahead, Lenovo remains committed to a collaborative and credible approach to ESG. Through partnerships with customers and suppliers—such as those engaged through the Lenovo 360 Circle—the company is advancing a shared vision for a more sustainable and inclusive future.

By Wayne Thompson

Mary Lou Schlueter made the same three-block trip from home to work up Main Street in Mascoutah, Illinois, that she’d made for six decades.

But what she found inside the bank building this morning was anything but typical for the longest-tenured active associate at Regions Bank.

Waiting inside for Schlueter were: John Jordan, head of Retail; Tyler Lipe, Midwest Consumer Banking Executive; Steve Nivet, Retail Sales and Service Performance Executive; Mascoutah Branch Manager Lamont Sneed; the area’s Consumer Banking Manager Jason Reinneck; Brandon Greve, head of Regions Investment Services; and other Regions Bank executives, family and friends.

All had traveled from far and near to say “thanks” to Schlueter for her extraordinary 60 years of service to Regions and Mascoutah. She began her bank career on June 7, 1965 with a predecessor bank and has never left the location on Main Street or its generations of customers.

‘Amazed and blessed’

“I was shocked when I saw all the cars in the parking lot and thought something was going on in the neighborhood,” Schlueter said of the surprise party sprung for her.

“When I walked in and saw all these people here, I was just overwhelmed,” she said. “It was so wonderful to see people from other states and my family.

“They did a great job keeping it a secret because no one told me a thing, not even my little granddaughter who I was with for more than an hour before I got here this morning. I’m just amazed and blessed.”

Jordan said the world-class experiences Regions seeks to deliver are the natural byproduct of trusted relationships like the ones Schlueter has established with so many Mascoutah residents for so long.

“With 60 years of tenure, there’s no telling how many experiences Mary Lou has really made world class,” he said.

“The biggest predictor of a world-class experience is the tenure of the person sitting across the desk from you. That’s why it’s so important to invest in our associates so Regions is a great place to bank and to build a career.”

Surprise anniversary gift

Lipe presented Schlueter with a crystal vase etched with her name and years of service. Then it was Nivet’s turn.

“You’ve been the voice and vision for our company here for 60 years,” he told Schlueter. “We cannot thank you enough for making a difference in all the lives that you’ve touched.”

That set up the morning’s biggest anniversary gift as Reinneck and Sneed presented a $6,000 check in Schlueter’s honor to Leu Civic Center. An agency of the United Way of Greater St. Louis, Leu served more than 6,200 local residents in 2024 through its education, low-cost athletics and community event programming.

“It was very much an honor to be there to see Mary Lou’s special day and all the people who came to celebrate her,” said Jenna Smith, executive director of the Leu Civic Center.

“We are so honored by the donation from Regions, and we want to, in turn, make sure that we use it to represent the impact Mary Lou has had on so many families in this community,” she said.

“We know it’s been very great over the 60 years she has spent at Regions — serving Regions and all the families that get to bank with her. We are so grateful for large donations like this. We can do a lot with a little and when we get a big one like this we can do a whole lot more.”

“We are so honored by the donation from Regions, and we want to, in turn, make sure that we use it to represent the impact Mary Lou has had on so many families in this community.”

Throwback decorations

Sneed and Schlueter’s teammates worked on the sly to deck out the branch from front to back for her in 1965-themed decorations.

Visitors learned from the displays that an average home cost $21,500 in 1965, cars went for $2,650, the Beatles’ “Yesterday” hit the radio and the word “Groovy” first entered the popular lexicon.

While the times have changed, Lipe said, the importance of people like Schlueter hasn’t.

‘A community legend’

“What makes Regions what it is are associates like Mary Lou that come to work with a smile on their face that take care of the customers and are involved in the community,” Lipe said. “She’s a community legend because of what she does in the community every single day. We’re so proud to have her.”

The Mascoutah branch is one of 23 full-service branches and 29 ATMs Regions operates in Clanton, Madison, St. Clair and Washington counties. Schlueter is one of about 135 associates working in the area and among the more than 7,400 serving customers for Regions at about 1,250 banking offices.

Schlueter started working at the bank because it was close to home and allowed her to also be a mom to her two children, including serving as the classroom grade mother at their school. She increased her hours at the bank as they grew and started their own families.

‘Rock of this branch’

“I love coming to work because I like people,” Schlueter said. “I plan to keep working as long as my body and brain and Regions let me.”

Because of what Schlueter means to Mascoutah and Regions, Sneed and the branch team decided to honor her in 2022 as a “Regions Legend.” She rode in the Mascoutah Homecoming parade complete with crown, sash and corsage.

The other half of Mascoutah’s ‘Dynamic Duo’ with Schlueter on the teller line – Relationship Banker Marissa Lahey – missed Mary Lou’s parade debut three years ago due to delivering a baby.

But she wasn’t about to miss the anniversary celebration of one of her best friends.

“I don’t think I know a single person who has worked at a company as long as she has, but it’s not even just that,” Lahey said. “Mary Lou truly treats me as if I’m one of our own grandkids and loves this job like no other.

“I’m really grateful for the leaders who took the time to come out and celebrate her with us because Mary Lou truly is the rock of this branch. If it wasn’t for her, I don’t know where I would be today.”

I’m really grateful for the leaders who took the time to come out and celebrate her with us because Mary Lou truly is the rock of this branch. If it wasn’t for her, I don’t know where I would be today.

As part of the many initiatives under its ambitious “Our World, Our Future” sustainability strategy, DP World is an active participant in the Green Marine certification program. This voluntary initiative promotes environmental sustainability within North America’s maritime industry and sets rigorous performance benchmarks across the sector.

How does Green Marine Operate? 

Green Marine assesses participants annually on a scale of 1 to 5 across 14 key performance indicators (KPIs). These KPIs span areas such as greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, air quality, spill prevention, waste management, community impacts, and aquatic ecosystems. 

Participants earn initial Green Marine certification by achieving at least a level 2 “best practices” performance on one KPI. To maintain certification, participants must demonstrate a minimum one-point increase in one KPI each year until level 2 is reached across all categories. Self-reported results are verified every two years by external auditors, strengthening the program’s integrity.

DP World’s Green Marine Successes 

For over a decade, DP World has enjoyed consistent success in the Green Marine program. In June 2024, the company earned Green Marine recertification for its Fairview Container Terminal at Prince Rupert, British Columbia – a certification held since 2013. This achievement highlights the terminal’s excellence across six KPIs: GHG and air pollutant emissions, spill prevention, waste management, community impact, environmental leadership, and community relations. 

Building on this success, DP World significantly expanded its Green Marine involvement in late 2024 by enrolling three additional terminals – located in Vancouver, Nanaimo, and Saint John – into the program. This expansion means DP World now manages four Green Marine-certified terminals in Canada, reinforcing its environmental leadership across strategic maritime locations in North America.

Looking Forward

DP World’s continued participation in Green Marine is crucial to the company’s aggressive push to decarbonize port and terminal operations. Hitting Green Marine targets naturally compliments the work DP World is doing beyond the program. For example, the company’s shore power initiative in Prince Rupert significantly cuts diesel fuel usage for vessels and is projected to prevent 30,000 tonnes of CO₂ emissions annually – the equivalent of removing about 6,500 cars from roads. 

Green Marine continues to evolve, reflecting increasing industry-wide demands for higher standards and improved sustainability outcomes. The program’s updated 2025 criteria feature enhanced GHG reduction targets, stricter controls on underwater noise and community impacts, and broader waste management practices for shipyards. 

In 2024 alone, Green Marine saw the average performance score increase to 2.9 from its 243 participants, demonstrating broad industry engagement and continuous improvement. The number of terminals participating grew by 21%, with 83% of participants achieving a level 3 or higher for the GHG KPI. 

DP World looks forward to the potential of adding more terminals to the program and is proud to be part of this growing global force for a green maritime future.
