SmartWay Focus
Stanley Black & Decker was introduced to the SmartWay program by Solutions Engineers at
Menlo Worldwide Logistics and has been a SmartWay Partner since 2009. Our percentage of
miles driven by EPA Transport Partners has increased from 78% in 2009 to 93% in 201 1 . The
SmartWay emissions factor of our truckloads has decreased 1 1 % from 201 0 to 201 1 , reflecting
increased fuel efficiency across our fleet, including the addition of high performing SmartWay
carriers. The environmental footprint of our North America transportation (Scope 3 emissions)
decreased by 1 35,824 tons of CO2e from 201 0 to 201 1 , a 20% reduction. 1 1 7 SmartWay
carriers transported SBD finished goods nearly 257 million miles in 201 1 .
Benefits & Results
Our SmartWay Transport Partnership is one of several ongoing initiatives
to shave our energy demand, increase our efficiency, and reduce the
environmental load of our logistics and distribution network.
Modal Shifts and Shortened Routes - Efficiencies to
Reduce the Footprint of Our Transportation Network
SBD European transportation staff pioneered the transition from truck-to-
rail and truck-to-barge for the regional transport of inbound finished
product arriving at our North Sea ports.
Truck-to-rail and truck-to-barge modal changes took 4760 full
container loads of inbound product off European highways

In 2013, employees from MAC Tools, SBD Corporate Freight, UPS, Menlo
Worldwide Logistics and Expediters International gathered for a lean freight
event at SBD's Columbus Fulfillment Center. Drawing on the principles of the
Stanley Fulfillment System (SFS),the team identified 30 projects to reduce
SBD's transportation demand and optimize logistics. Going forward SBD
will assess and implement those projects that hold the most promise for
increasing freight efficiency in the company's global supply chain.
Continued
in 201 1, with a resultant 893,350 less miles
driven translating to 2300 mT in Greenhouse Gas
avoidance.
North America transportation staff applied the
same modal shift principle to both inbound
and outbound freight, transitioning more than
1,040,000 million 2012 miles from truck to rail
across 4 outbound lanes alone.
Direct shipping to Canadian customers has also
shortening shipping routes, with a single route
change saving 84,240 highway miles in 2012.
Sustainable Packaging -
Efficiencies to Reduce Our
Transportation Demand
SBD is using Walmart's Sustainable Packaging
3.0 software to characterize the current state of
our shipping and selling unit packaging, in order
to set enterprise-wide packaging reduction goals.
Quantification is based on Key Performance
Indicators including packaging material
sustainability profile (footprint), transport distance,
package: product ratios, and cube utilization.
Looking Ahead
Stanley Black & Decker is committed to
sustainable business policies and initiatives that
reduce our impact on the environment and
improve the quality of life in every community we
reach.
SmartWay's transportation management tool
has allowed us to increase the fuel efficiencies
of our transportation and decrease the emission
factors of that transportation, delivering a more
sustainable logistics and distribution footprint for
Stanley Black & Decker.
Partnerships like SmartWay with verifiable results
have helped Stanley Black & Decker achieve
recognition as a Dow Jones Sustainability Index
company for North America, and recognition as
our Sector Mover in 2012.
