Ewing appointed Warren S. Gorowitz to vice president of sustainability to focus full-time on the continued development and execution of the company’s sustainable initiatives.

“We set out to become an industry leader in water efficiency in 2005, positioning our brand, education programs and product offering to support contractors in becoming early adopters of water efficient technologies,” said Douglas York, Ewing’s president.

Gorowitz has had a hand in Ewing’s sustainability efforts for about five years, gathering key stakeholders to develop a baseline for the company’s existing sustainability initiatives and to identify future opportunities.

Preliminary efforts included the establishment of a Sustainable Solutions Council (SSC) and an advisory group to guide and direct the company’s efforts toward learning, modeling and influencing environmentally responsible practices; the development of a sustainability charter; the use of internal employee Green Teams to champion specific initiatives; and the Ewing PRIDE Project, a large-scale annual renovation and installation project benefitting organizations that embody Ewing’s core values of family, wellness, water efficiency and sustainability.

“Five years ago when we started on the path of formalizing our intentions and defining what sustainability means to Ewing, we recognized the true scope of such an effort — and that it would take a significant commitment on our part to be successful,” said Gorowitz.
