Social Impact
We continue to have an opportunity and responsibility to further develop plans, actions and results that promote fair, honest and ethical practices across our business. Applied remains focused on Working Together and Winning Together.
Sustainability
As a distributor, we maintain a light carbon footprint. We also support a healthy environment by helping our customers reduce their impact.
Selecting "green" products has many benefits over and above the environmental impact. It can be a smart business choice for lowering operations costs, creating a safer working environment, complying with government policies, and generating positive business relations.

The eco-friendly attributes of thousands of products are detailed in our Applied Product Catalog and on our website. From belts and motors to chemicals, our suppliers have identified these and other eco-friendly product attributes
Community Involvement
At Applied®, we help shape the communities in which we operate and reside not only by providing superior service to our customers but also by taking an active role in our community, further strengthening our corporate social responsibility efforts and building on our legacy.
Applied STEM Engagement
At Applied, we recognize the impact and importance of corporate social responsibility in today's dynamic business environment. Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) initiatives provide us the opportunity to share our knowledge and engage today's students with important and relevant career path opportunities that highlight STEM as among the key skills of the evolving marketplace.
