Just one 64-gallon bin of waste was collected during the off-site building process of the net-zero electricity home, which was displayed during the annual meeting, helping attendees conceptualize the low amount of waste accumulated during the off-site home building process.

“From the building process to homeownership, Clayton aims to incorporate sustainability across our business,” said William Jenkins, Director of Environment and Sustainability. “While we are continuing to improve the energy efficiency of our homes, our sustainability efforts also include improving the energy and fuel efficiency of our operations, increasing our reliance on renewable energy, and setting ongoing reduction targets for waste and water consumption.”

Clayton’s building innovations are part of a larger commitment to social responsibility that spans across the entire enterprise. The newly launched Clayton Social Responsibility website features stories across the company demonstrating Clayton’s growing commitment to be a “force for good” for Clayton’s communities, customers, Team Members and partners. The company’s social responsibility focus includes: delivering an outstanding team member experience, democratizing housing, investing in communities and building a sustainable future. The site highlights a new partnership between Clayton and The Arbor Day Foundation to plant 2.33 million trees in forests around the country in 2022, helping restore vital ecosystems in an effort to foster a long-term, sustainable impact.
