Business Wire
Since 1982, Susan G. Komen has worked toward one vision: to
create a world without breast cancer. Continental Building Products
announced today that it stands by this vision and will support
Susan G. Komen and its mission to save lives by meeting the most
critical needs in our communities and investing in breakthrough
research to prevent and cure breast cancer.
One of Continental’s core beliefs is the importance of giving
back to the communities in which its employees live and work.
Whether donating wallboard to local charities' building efforts or
providing low-cost solar energy to residents near its Buchanan, NY
plant, Continental strives to always live its BISON values: Bold,
Inclusive, Steadfast, Open-minded and Nimble.
In keeping with this mission, Continental is working towards
partnering with Komen in the summer of 2019 through sales of its
Weather Defense® exterior sheathing. The exterior sheathing will
feature a new Bison BoardTM Weather Defense® logo in pink, along
with Susan G. Komen’s pink Running Ribbon on a white
background.
“Breast cancer will touch one in eight women during their
lifetime and is something that impacted my family,” says Jay
Bachmann, Continental’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “I
am proud that Continental will play a part in supporting the battle
against this disease in partnership with Susan G. Komen.”
