Values

Bullseye's first products were made with recycled glass, and that was more than thirty-five years ago. From the beginning we've been seriously committed to social responsibility: impacting the environment, communities, and people in positive ways.

Philosophy

We conduct every aspect of our business to lessen our impact on the environment, provide a high quality of life for our employees, and protect everyone who may be touched by our business. At Bullseye, social responsibility means doing our best to instill our ethics and values into every aspect of our work.

Safety and Sourcing Strategies

We designed the factory in which our glass products are made to the highest standards for employee safety and environmental accountability. We endeavor to purchase all of our supplies and goods from socially responsible vendors.

Employee Support

With a staff of approximately 125 employees, we strive to create a work environment in which the rights and needs of all are respected and individual contributions are acknowledged. We encourage the entire staff to offer suggestions, ask questions, and voice concerns. We administer programs that foster personal and professional development, and provide a comprehensive benefits program designed to protect the health, wellbeing, and financial stability of our employees and their dependents.

Community Involvement

We believe it is important to support the communities in which we live and work. We do this by making product donations and offering technical support to local educational institutions and public arts projects. In addition, we encourage our employees to make time for charitable activities by offering paid-time off to volunteer.

Environmental Accountability

Our commitment to environmental accountability involves progressive planning in the areas of design, waste reduction, and energy conservation. Bullseye Factory has been designed to meet the highest standards for employee safety and environmental accountability.

In 2004, Bullseye was honored with an award from BEST (Businesses for an Environmentally Sustainable Tomorrow) in Portland's Office of Sustainable Development—for achieving a 60% reduction in factory water use by voluntarily replacing a single-pass cooling system with one that re-circulates water.

In 2005, we installed an oxygen system to improve efficiency in the consumption of natural gas in our manufacturing process. We anticipate that within a few years the system will reduce our carbon emissions by as much as 40% and our nitrous oxide emissions by more than 90%.

We are pleased with these advances and will continue to address the environmental challenges confronting our community and our industry.
