How We Are Defining What’s Next

The OPW Defining What’s Next philosophy is focused on constantly striving to develop technologies for the reliable and efficient handling of the world’s most essential fluids to enhance the quality of life for people, the environment and its clients around the globe. This is more than a tagline, however. This mission drives OPW and its business units to be good corporate citizens through the implementation of Environmental & Social Governance (ESG) operating principles.

Strong ESG principles – defined as steps taken to improve sustainability and lessen the societal impact of industrial processes – have always been at the root of OPW’s corporate mission. OPW fluid-handling innovation strives to protect people and the environment while enhancing the business performance of its clients in the Chemical & Industrial, Transportation, Retail Fueling and Vehicle Wash industries.

OPW’s Defining What’s Next philosophy rests on a foundation supported by three pillars:

Protecting People

Protecting People

Ensuring a better way of life for people around the globe requires safe, reliable and efficient handling of millions of gallons of essential fluids every day. OPW has placed itself at the center of this life-enhancing value chain through the development of fluid-handling technologies designed to protect those things we cherish most – our families and friends.
