Message From the
CEO
“Sustainability is a value integrated into the way we run our business at Inpro because it’s the right thing to do. What started out
as genuine community participation and common sense environmental stewardship has evolved into a realization that we have
a responsibility to all stakeholders to move beyond compliance. We are proud to have formalized our sustainability commitment.
Alongside health and safety, appearance and service, sustainability has been identified as one of our corporate pillars. While
Inpro has been a thought leader in many respects, when it comes to integrating principles of sustainability into daily actions, we
believe there is room for everyone to improve. We share our sustainability story to push the needle forward in the industry and to
remain transparent to our employees, customers, community members and others. Thank you for taking the time to read about
our most recent endeavors!”
2016 Sustainability Report
INTRODUCTION
Inpro has had a strong sense of environmental and community stewardship since 1979. Over time our commitment to
environmental, social and economic performance has evolved significantly. We look forward to sharing our sustainability journey
with you through our third consecutive corporate sustainability report. Within this publication, you will find qualitative and well as
quantitative information on our sustainability commitment. Feel welcome to use this document as a resource to implement similar
initiatives and principles into your own organization.
Following the guidelines of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) we chose to include information that reflects our significant
sustainability impacts under the categories of environmental, social and economic impacts. While information has been organized
in these three pillars, it is vital for our readers to understand these three elements work in tandem to make our sustainability
initiatives as successful and effective as possible. For example, while we identify employee engagement initiatives as a part of our
social sustainability pillar, these initiatives help us attract and retain great employees which has a positive effect on our financial
health.
This 2016 Corporate Sustainability Report includes information from the year prior. While completely voluntary, we believe it is
important to remain transparent internally as well as externally on our ever-evolving sustainability journey.
Phil Ziegler - CEO

SUSTAINABILITY
POLICY
At Inpro we have a formal sustainability policy which you will find below. Later in this
report you’ll see we also have a formal environmental policy. The sustainability policy
concisely encompasses our overall approach to integrating sustainability principles
into every day and long-term business decisions. The environmental policy focuses
specifically on environmental stewardship and is a policy defined, in part for ISO14001
and Environmental Management System compliance.
At Inpro, operating in a systematically sustainable manner provides opportunities
to be innovative when it comes to business practices and product offerings. We
understand that everyday matters, matter every day. It is Inpro’s sustainability policy
to conduct business and product development with consideration of the relationship
with people, the planet and profit.
We intend to continuously reduce our overall environmental impact, positively
impact the communities within which we operate, and provide an economically
responsible place of employment for our employees and respective communities. We
realize that as the world around us—knowledge, technology, culture and policy—
evolves, so will our sustainability policy.
New Employee SustainabilityTraining:
All new Inpro employees go through a robust new employee training program within
the first few weeks of arrival. Training reviews workplace culture and etiquette, safety,
product information, sustainability and more. It is important that each of our new
colleagues understands sustainability is a mindset integrated into the culture here at
Inpro and that each of us has a part to play in achieving a more sustainable future.

SOCIAL
RESPONSIBILITY
Whether one categorizes this aspect of our sustainability commitment
as social responsibility, social performance or stakeholder engagement
at the end of the day we’re really speaking about doing well by the
communities within which we operate. Our sustainability initiatives
are developed for and therefore involve the active participation of
employees and stakeholders throughout our communities. In the
following pages you will find replicable examples of ways we’ve
engaged our colleagues around sustainability principles and taken our
commitment out into our communities. Supporting our community is
an inherent part of our corporate values.
“Our mission and values are important factors in attracting and
retaining employees at Inpro. Sustainability is one of our key values
and it helps us prosper because it positively affects our employees,
customers and brand. Our sustainability efforts in HR help to advance
our goals in talent acquisition, employee health, safety and well-being,
work-life balance, reward and recognition programs, gender equality,
performance management and career development.
Employees need to know that their employer is doing the right thing
and involving employees in our sustainability efforts builds employee
motivation. Motivated employees are more productive, efficient, and
satisfied which translates into better customer service and business
growth. Employees want purpose in their work and we strive to
maintain a culture that appeals to employees who seek meaning
in their job. We will continue on the path of creating a culture and
environment that helps our employees reach their full potential.”

MILWAUKEE JOURNAL
SENTINEL’STOP
WORKPLACES OF2015
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel has been recognizing the Top Workplaces in southeastern Wisconsin
since 2009, giving businesses and organizations an opportunity to celebrate and share their best
practices. The program is voluntary and the number of workplaces surveyed has grown each year.
In 2015, Inpro was recognized as a Top Workplace in the midsize company category for the sixth
consecutive year. Below are some of the statements our colleagues submitted to the survey.
“I feel appreciated.”
“I’ve always felt like I was treated fairly. I consider Inpro a family.”
“The company sincerely cares about the employees!”
“Very good benefits and perks.”

HEALTH AND SAFETY
Inpro is committed to supporting wellness efforts because we take our employee’s overall health, productivity and well-
being seriously. We again offered the Healthy Rewards Program to our colleagues in 2015.
While staying active is very important, there is more to healthy living than just exercising. Wellness is a way of living – eating
a healthful diet, reducing stress, managing one’s well-being every day. Everyone takes different steps to enhance their health
and well-being. That is why the Healthy Rewards Program includes other important areas in wellness such as preventive
screenings, good nutrition, education, safety, volunteering and more.
The Healthy Rewards Program allows participants to earn points throughout the year for making smart decisions about
their well-being. There are three Achievement Levels: Bronze, Silver & Gold. At the end of the year, points earned can be
redeemed for rewards!
• Inpro had 105 employees who reached one of the Award Levels in the Healthy Rewards program for 2015. (78 Gold, 22
Silver & 5 Bronze).
• The Poker Walk is usually our most popular event; we had 183 employees take part in the 2015 Poker Walk.
• Inpro held 10 different Lunch and Learn topics throughout 2015 on various topics such as Elder Care, Bone Health, Fire
Safety, Types of Life Insurance, Real Estate 101 and Staying Active. Our L&L’s are very well attended with most of the
sessions having 40+ attendees. 75 employees attended the Bone Health topic presented by Dr. Whitcomb.
• Inpro hosts a Flu Vaccine clinic open to employees, spouses and children 18+ free of charge. 160 flu vaccines were
administered in 2015.
• We launched the Fitbit Purchase program in Nov 2015. 164 employees took advantage of the discounted group price
and Inpro subsidy to purchase a Fitbit.
Inpro has a firm responsibility to prevent injuries to employees. To meet this responsibility, we have made every effort
to lessen hazards by installing safer equipment, machinery and devices, and by providing policies and training to our
employees. Inpro has a Safety Committee comprised of Department Representatives selected to serve on the team. Their
purpose is to meet on a regular basis to discuss safety problems, recommend solutions or programs to maintain the
safest work place possible, and effectively keep the company in compliance with government regulations. They have the
responsibility to bring to the attention of fellow employees violations of safety rules, unsafe acts, and the importance of
wearing proper safety apparel (glasses, shoes and equipment).
In keeping with our goal to be world-class in all that we do, Inpro conducts a health and safety strategic planning session
with all of our safety members each year. This daylong event is used to review past accomplishments and strengths as well
as identify weaknesses and opportunities for improvement. One way to gauge ourselves is applying for awards to puts
up against other world-class manufacturers. Inpro was awarded an Outstanding Achievement Certificate being a 2015
Wisconsin Corporate Safety Award Finalist from The Wisconsin Safety Council. Inpro also worked over 2.1 million hours
without a lost time injury that began August of 2013.

INPRO’S OWN ON-SITE
DAY CARE
INPRO®UNIVERSITY
Inpro University’s mission is to support the children and families of Inpro employees. Our center provides a safe, developmentally
appropriate environment for all children. Through play and personal interactions we provide meaningful care and education that
promotes each child’s social, emotional, physical and cognitive development. Our goal is to lay the foundation that will instill the
love and joy of learning throughout their life time.
Here is what Inpro University has been up to over the past year:
• Crafts, projects, and even classroom furnishings are continuously being made from recycling materials or items found at
Goodwill, etc.
• Classrooms use less and less of the florescent lighting. Natural light is encouraged and used most often.
• We maintain house plants for all classrooms; a special caretaking classroom job for the children.
• We transformed an old barrel found at a rummage sale into a rain barrel. Children can now independently help water the
garden. They are also taught to use the water collected from the rain sparingly, especially this past summer. This has raised
their awareness of our climate and how dependent we are on natural rain fall.
• Again we planted a full garden which the children help care for daily. Everything that is harvested is shared among all the
children. On Wednesday’s our Preschool Room has a“Cooking in a Cup”class. The main ingredients are what has been
gathered from the garden.
• All classrooms are now taking nature walks. Their walks are along the bike trail and also in the wooded area across the street.
The sole purpose is to get our children in unmanicured nature for them to explore uninterrupted.
• All teachers this year have been assigned to incorporate at least one element of nature in their classroom consistently.
Whichever element they decide on it needs to be available to the children for them to explore, manipulate, and play with in an
open ended way. Teachers are to document their observations of the children.
• Teachers have also been assigned to write about their own relationship with nature. How connected are they themselves?
What makes them uncomfortable or comfortable alone in nature? How often are they outside digging in dirt? Walking
through woods or even a park? What is it in them that has resistance for their classroom children to explore nature verses
the park with equipment? Getting dirty? Hurt? The unpredictability of the space? Do they have thoughts that various rocks,
bark, sticks, moss and dirt are less of a value for children and their education then the manufactured bright colored animated
educational toys? ect…..I have them bring their nature journals or at least a report of what they have discovered about
themselves in relationship to nature to our staff meetings.
• Having the teachers work on themselves and their relationship to nature will in turn create more of an authentic atmosphere
for the children in their class. When their teacher brings or encourages them to connect with nature it will come from them
and their willingness. Not because the center director said“we should do this”or this“looks”sustainable to others. As the
children’s teachers we are the example, the model. The children know when something brought to them is authentic and
meaningful and when it’s not.
- Allison Erickson, Executive Director Inpro University

COMMUNITY SUPPORTED
AGRICULTURE
Inpro is proud to have partnered with Godsell Farms in 2015 through their Community Supported Agriculture (CSA)
program. A CSA consists of a cooperative between farmers and consumers/shareholders. Shareholders provide enough
money in early spring to meet the farms operating expenses for the upcoming season. In exchange, the members receive
a portion of the farms produce each week throughout the season. This investment allows participants to connect to their
food, the land, and those who tend the soil. Throughout the season, members get to know the farmers who grow their
food which creates a great connection to the local community.
To learn more about Godsell Farms and the CSA program visit www.godsellfarm.com.
MUSKEGO AREA FOOD
PANTRY
Inpro has a tradition of hosting employee lunches every other Thursday for our colleagues. During those lunches
employees are encouraged to donate non-perishable food items that are then given to the Muskego Area Food Pantry.
The Muskego Food Pantry’s mission is to feed the people of the Muskego area and treat them with dignity, respect, and
compassion. Typically, the Food Pantry receives a full barrel or two of canned goods per month from these efforts, which
helps them continue to feed hundreds of people monthly. Additionally, the Food Pantry is currently housed in one of
Inpro’s buildings in the Muskego Industrial Park at no cost to the pantry.
DIVERSITY AND EQUAL
OPPORTUNITIES
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is intended to prohibit discrimination against people with disabilities.
Signed into law on July 27, 1990, the ADA is divided into four major sections: employment, public services
and transportation, public accommodations and commercial facilities, and telecommunications. Inpro fully
subscribes to the principals and intentions of the ADA and expects all employees to adhere to those principals
as well. Specifically, Inpro employees may not discriminate in any employment practice against people with
disabilities, including practices such as recruiting, hiring, promotion and termination.
Inpro is also committed to a policy of equal treatment and opportunity in every aspect of its relations with its
employees and applicants without regard to race, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, veteran status,
sexual orientation or any other employment classification as defined by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission. We pledge that we shall take affirmative action to ensure that all qualified applicants and
employees are treated equally in areas including but not limited to recruitment, hiring, selection for training,
transfers, upgrades and promotions, rates of pay and other forms of compensation, disciplinary actions, layoff or
termination, and participation in Company sponsored programs.
VOLUNTEERTIME
Employees who have been employed at Inpro for more than a year may volunteer up to eight hours to assist an
organization working in the areas of wellness, environment, youth events and charity fundraisers. This gives our
employees flexible time to give back to causes they care about, making our community that much better!

CONTINUOUS LEARNING
OPPORTUNITIES:LUNCH-
AND-LEARN PROGRAM AND
LEED GREEN ASSOCIATES
One of Inpro’s corporate values is to provide a life-long learning environment for employees. For this reason we have
developed a very robust employee Lunch-and-Learn program. In 2015 beyond the health-focused learning opportunities
listed above, we also offered sustainability-related learning opportunities. We invited in Andy Hemken, local apiarist
and honey partner to speak about the ecological, economic and health benefits of bees and other pollinators. We also
welcomed Lisa Sasso of the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District (MMSD) to share information on green home
infrastructure such as rain gardens, rain barrels and pesticide-free landscaping.
In addition to our Lunch-and-Learn program we offer to all employees the opportunity to earn their LEED Green Associate
credential. Given the customers and markets we serve, it is imperative our employees understand the benefits of the
sustainable built environment and are able to consult customers around this topic. That is precisely why Inpro will provide
all the tools necessary for employees to study, earn and maintain this well renowned credential.

COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
Community involvement is a huge part of Inpro®. We began in Muskego, Wisconsin and are proud to continue to do our best
to support the community whenever we can. Our employees proudly put time and effort into volunteering to a variety of
community service activities.
Schools to SkillsTour, a joint effort with Waukesha County Action Network:
The premise of this program is to educate youth about acquiring skillsets for manufacturing and hands-on positions at technical
schools and within the manufacturing sector. During their time at tech school they may seek employment opportunities while
still learning the trade.
CareerTour, a joint effort with the Muskego Area Chamber of Commerce:
The learning objective of this program is to educate high school students on the various job opportunities available in the area.
As many of the students associate manufacturing with hands on assembly work, we emphasized the fact that there is a place
for everyone in the manufacturing arena; including sales, administration, sustainability, marketing, training and development,
human resources and more.
Job preparedness event, a joint effort with the Muskego Area Chamber of Commerce:
Each year a handful of managers take part in the mock interview process at Muskego High School to prepare students for future
positions they will pursue. 2015 marked our fourth year of participation!
Inpro Scholarship:
Each year Inpro provides one $1,000 non-renewable scholarship to members of the current year graduating class of Muskego
High School. Funds are to be utilized for a two or four year program at a college, university or technical school. 2015 marked the
seventh year of the Inpro Scholarship!
Junior Achievement Program:
Each year a core group of 10 Inpro employees teaches Junior Achievement coursework to local schools. 2015 marked the fifth
year of participation!
Sandhill Booster Club Support:
Every other Thursday when employees gather for a catered luncheon, donations are welcomed for the Sandhill Booster Club.
The club uses the funds to support local families in the Muskego area. 2015 marked Inpro’s fifth year of participation and
throughout the year our employees raised approximately $3000 to donate!

PLANET
At Inpro, we understand that we cannot ultimately succeed as a business
if the natural environment isn’t healthy. That is why we go beyond mere
compliance to have as much of a positive and rejuvenating impact on the
natural environment as possible.
PLANET

ISO14001AND EMS$
In 2013 Inpro earned its ISO14001 certification with the support of a robust Environmental Management
System (EMS). As defined by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency,“an EMS is a set of processes and
practices that enable an organization to reduce its environmental impacts and increase its operating
efficiency.” For Inpro, creating an EMS managed and maintained by specific employees has allowed for a very
pragmatic and well-organized approach to environmental performance accounting.
Each autumn the EMS team gathers to review the achievements and potential shortfalls of objectives and
targets set for that year. After review, the team identifies all significant environmental impacts across the
company and begins to set objectives and targets for the following year. The team then meets at a minimum
every six weeks to update progress on those objectives and targets. Each year the EMS is reviewed by all
Senior Managers in the company. To the right is an overview of our 2015 objectives and targets.

CARBON EMISSIONS
For years, not unlike many organizations, we tracked our environmental performance indicators with tools such as
Excel. In 2015, Inpro took a giant step forward and actually integrated environmental accounting and sustainable
enterprise software called SoFi, into our performance tracking. This software is provided by thinkstep and allows us
to more easily upload data, set targets, create analytics, forecast and backcast scenarios and identify risks in order
to maximize impact mitigation. The following graphics were developed within this software. We use 2012 as a
baseline and have normalized most of the data against dollars (USD) shipped in order to compare year after year
more consistently. We have not yet calculated our Scope 3 emissions, although we do partner with UPS in the Carbon
Neutral Program to ensure carbon offsets are purchased.
ELECTRIC USAGE
Electric usage increased by 141,825 kWh between 2014 and 2015 due to increases in product demand and an
increase in square footage of our corporate campus. After the data was normalized per dollar shipped our overall
electric usage came down. We are pleased to see this trend continuing from 2012 even as production increases.
Inpro has invested in many energy efficiency alternatives including: energy efficient lighting; energy efficient
electronics; energy efficient appliances; energy efficient industrial equipment; motion sensors; timers; and other
lighting controls; temperature control systems; smart meters/energy management software; automatic sleep modes
for computers, printers; and storage virtualization to name a few. In the past we have also partnered with the Focus
on Energy Program in Wisconsin to help identify increased energy efficiency opportunities.
As indicated by the chart above, Inpro’s Scope 1 emissions were reduced slightly between 2014 and 2015 while Scope
2 emissions were up less than 1%. During this time Inpro added a 30,000 square foot office building to our corporate
campus.

GAS USAGE
Inpro’s natural gas usage is primarily a result of heating during colder months. Average low temperature in Wisconsin
is 30.4°F with the coldest months falling between October and March. Per the Wisconsin State Climatology Office
2013 and 2014 had more frequent days that fell below 0°F than 2012 or 2015 which may explain the increase in
natural gas usage. We are happy to report usage dame down in 2015 compared to 2014 both in actual station energy
usage as well as after being normalized per US dollar shipped.
WATER USAGE
Inpro’s total water usage was up in 2015 compared to years prior. Between 2014 and 2015 Inpro added a 30,000
square foot office building to our corporate campus. We hypothesize the increase is attributable to additional water
use from toilets and sinks in the new building in addition to the initial irrigation of landscaping during development.
Additionally, sales were up in 2015 which correlates with initial higher water usage volumes; especially in our
hydrographics department which utilizes a water dip tank in the product manufacturing process. Water reduction
goals remain a focus of our Environmental Management System; we continue to investigate and implement ways to
more efficiently and effectively use and replenish this invaluable resource.
Inpro has invested in water conservation technologies including: automatic sinks; low-flow toilets and urinals; low-
flow faucets and shower-heads; water efficient industrial processes; rain sensors in automatic irrigation systems and
seasonal settings in automatic irrigation systems. We have also implemented storm water management techniques
such as detention ponds, riparian buffers and biofilters.

BYPRODUCT USAGE
In 2015 our recyclable product sold to vendor increased due to a newly found market for scrap material previously
sent to landfill. Waste reduction is an environmental impact investigated on an annual basis. Inpro implements office
waste minimization actions such as recycling bins next to all landfill cans at the office, eliminating individual printers
in favor of fewer, shared or multi-functional devices; most copiers and printers are set to two-sided printing; fax and
printer cover sheets have been eliminated; paper files have been replaced by an electronic system; we’ve removed
our business from bulk and junk mailing lists; we’ve integrated permanent kitchenware use instead of disposable
cups, plates, utensils; and food products have begun to be composted onsite. We currently recycle items such as
cardboard and paper; plastic; glass; metal; ink toners/cartridges; batteries and electronic waste.

GREENTIER
Near Earth Day, 2015 Inpro proudly accepted a spot in the Wisconsin Department
of Natural Resources Green Tier Program. Representatives of the DNR presented
a certificate of acceptance to CEO, Phil Ziegler, the Sustainable Business
Committee and Environmental Management System Team acknowledging Inpro
for our company-wide continued sustainable business practices.
The Green Tier program is a recognition and partnership program between
Wisconsin businesses, trade associations, communities and non-profits, and
the Department of Natural Resources. Green Tier is designed to encourage
innovation, collaboration and new environmental goal setting.
“Over the past 15 years, Inpro has continued to push the envelope
with sustainability and product development,”Ziegler said.
“Our manufacturing teams continually look for new ways to
reduce waste and work closely with our suppliers to find the
best materials for manufacturing efficiently.”Requirements of
the GreenTier Program include having a strong environmental
record, a willingness to exceed regulatory standards and overall
improving of performance and the environment.
“Inpro’s obsession goes beyond protection,”Amanda Goetsch,
Inpro’s Sustainability Manager, said.“Our goal is to operate and
produce products through a sustainability lens of environmental,
social and economic performance and responsibility for the
betterment of all stakeholders.”

ADOPT-A-HWY
PROGRAM
Inpro has for the second consecutive year, partnered with Waukesha County
Adopt-A-Highway Litter Control program. Our first clean-up took place on May
10th and was a blast! We cleaned up over 2 miles of Hwy U from 164 to ES. One
local resident came outside to see what we were up to; in over his 20 years of
living on that stretch of road he has never seen a group of people cleaning it up.
He was thrilled to see Inpro care enough to dedicate a few hours to cleaning up
his neighborhood throughout the summer!
Adopt-A-Highway is Wisconsin’s litter control program and helps:
• Reduce litter along Wisconsin’s highways
• Build statewide support for the anti-litter and highway beautification
programs
• Educate the traveling public to properly dispose of litter
• Enhance the environment and beautify Wisconsin’s roadsides.
In 2015, Inpro was part of the Wisconsin Adopt-a-Hwy cohort who picked up
over 1,360 bags, over 19 tons, of garbage throughout the year. Bumpers, an
engine, and a refrigerator door, were the most unusual items found.

BIODIVERSITY
Biodiversity projects at Inpro not only directly benefit the natural
environment but also offer an educational opportunity for our colleagues
and surrounding community. Whether it’s implementing a bee colony
farm on our campus or installing partial native prairie to our landscaping
we attempt to integrate systematic and ecological principles into our
relationship with the natural environment
BIODIVERSITY

BEES
A syndrome known as Colony Collapse Disorder has been on the rise causing honey
bee colonies to decline at an annual rate of 30% or more. This phenomenon causes
adult bees to abruptly vanish, leaving the queen and her brood in a deserted hive. The
danger of colony collapse is significant as numerous agricultural crops rely on bees for
pollination.
Bees pollinate more than 100 types of crops in the U.S., from almonds to berries.
According to the UN, close to $200 billion worth crops globally are dependent on bees
to help in spreading pollen. Inpro has decided to do its part in reversing the trend by
installing a honey bee sanctuary on its corporate campus outside Milwaukee. In 2015
we expanded our bee sanctuary to four hives or approximately 24,000 to 28,000 bees.
This project has offered a platform for employee education on honey bees, their decline,
the health benefits of local honey and more. Inpro has also involved young students
at Inpro University daycare on campus. Honey is sold to employees throughout the
year and all proceeds go back into the project. Additionally, we’ve had a handful of
employees learn from the Inpro experience and install bee hives on their own property.

FISH
In 2015 Inpro began an exciting circular economy partnership with a business owned
and operated by David Ewald, called Fishiding. Fishiding artificial fish habitat products
have continued to lead the industry with innovative forms of strictly reclaimed, artificial
PVC fish habitat since 2008, focusing on fish growth and reproduction. Flexible limbs
of all sizes and massive surface area, produce shade, food and protection. From
impenetrable shallow water fry/forage cover up to 15’tall spires of vertical habitat, all
models self-open or bend to shape and drop in the lake directly out of the box.
Artificial habitat products utilize reclaimed pre- and post-consumer rigid PVC without
manufacturing. Unlike standard recycling which requires breaking down to re-
manufacture, by using reclaimed materials no additional plastics, chemicals or energy
are needed. By re-using existing un-wanted materials, a multitude of advantages
continue to emerge. Each individual habitat model is unique with no two units being
exactly the same, creating unlimited textures and variety, closely mimicking nature
and what fish prefer. David’s product has been utilized in many projects including the
Wisconsin DNR Wild Rose Hatchery project, the Allegany Reservoir Habitat project and
Carbon Canyon Regional Park in Brea, California to name just a few.

NATIVE PRAIRIE
In 2015, Inpro continued to maintain a partial native prairie as part of its overall
landscaping plan. Perennial species include the Eastern purple coneflower, Little
bluestem and the Black-eyed-Susan to name a few. Not only are these native plants
aesthetically pleasing but also help us reduce water consumption for irrigation as well as
fuel consumption for lawn maintenance.

THE NATURE
CONSERVANCY OF
WISCONSIN
Proceeds from the Inpro’s 2015 Earth Day 5K run and walk were donated to The Nature
Conservancy of Wisconsin. “The Nature Conservancy is working across Wisconsin to
protect our state’s water, forests and grasslands. Since their founding in 1960, The
Nature Conservancy has protected more than 232,200 acres of land and water in some
of Wisconsin’s most critical landscapes. These areas include the Baraboo Hills in Sauk
and Columbia counties, the Door Peninsula, the forests of northern Wisconsin, the
Mukwonago River watershed in southeast Wisconsin, and the Military Ridge Prairie
Heritage area in southwest Wisconsin. The Nature Conservancy also owns and manages
preserves in other locations around the state. Conservancy preserves are open to the
public for recreational activities such as hiking, hunting, canoeing, cross-country skiing
and wildlife-watching.” To learn more, visit http://www.nature.org/ourinitiatives/regions/

SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS
COMMITTEE
Inpro is again very proud of the level of employee engagement related to our sustainability initiatives. The
Sustainable Business Committee was formed in 2010 when almost 30 employees expressed interest in
contributing to a more sustainable workplace. The task of the Sustainable Business Committee is to manage
and promote internal sustainability initiatives focused on environmental, social and economic responsibility.
In 2015 fifteen Inpro employees actively participated on the committee throughout the entire year.
GREEN PRODUCT
COMMITTEE
Inpro’s Green Product Committee is tasked with acting as an incubator for sustainable product research and
innovation, making consensus-based decisions to communicate to colleagues throughout the company.
This committee is geared toward our product management team and helps inform colleagues throughout
the company on green building and product transparency trends to name a few areas of focus.

EARTHWEEK2015
Inpro’s 2015 Earth Week was packed with fun and educational opportunities!
Our Sustainable Business Committee helped compile a week’s worth of activities
to help celebrate the 45th anniversary of Gaylord Nelson’s first Earth Day.
Activities included daily“Did you Know?”emails distributed to the entire
company (topics covered water awareness, energy awareness, climate, food
systems and the history of Earth Day), handing out over 400 native tree saplings
to employees, free electronic recycling for employees, kicking-off of Inpro’s
compost program, an Earth Day 5K run and walk with proceeds benefiting the
Nature Conservancy of Wisconsin and a celebration of our acceptance to the
Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Green Tier program.
We especially enjoy celebrating Earth Day due to the fact that the founder of the
holiday, Gaylord Nelson is from Wisconsin. Former Senator and Governor Nelson
was born in the“North Woods of Wisconsin in 1916 and grew up admiring the
beautify of the Wisconsin land…”(www.nelsonearthday.net).

ECONOMIC
RESPONSIBILITY
Without remaining financially and economically viable Inpro wouldn’t have the
opportunity to initiate the sustainability principles shared with you in this report.
It is incredibly important for us to offer a secure place of employment. While
many of our sustainability initiatives also have a positive impacts on our bottom
line sometimes we implement practices because it’s the right thing to do. We’d
like to take this opportunity to update you on changes to the business and
initiatives that directly impact our bottom line.
ECONOMICRESPONSIBILITY

ACQUISITIONS AND
BUSINESS GROWTH
Earlier in 2015, Inpro acquired Buffalo, N.Y. based Fireline 520 LLC, one of the nation’s premier designers and manufacturers of
fire barriers for expansion joints. Fireline 520 became a wholly owned subsidiary of Inpro, and as such maintained its staff and
production operations in Buffalo. The installation of fire blankets and fire-stop material sin expansion joints protects buildings
and reduces occupants’exposure to smoke and flame, which allows for safer evacuation. Fireline 520 also holds several patents
incorporating vapor and water barrier systems to reduce a building’s exposure to the elements.
Shortly after the acquisition of Fireline 520, Inpro announced the acquisition of Hinkel Inc., a North Carolina-based manufacturer
of window shades and treatments, cubicle curtains, privacy systems, and decorative and specialty products. Hinkel continues to
operate as a wholly owned subsidiary of Inpro, and maintains its staff and operations at its facilities outside of Charlotte. Widely
known for its professional, responsive customer service, Hinkel is a leading manufacturer and installer of privacy and design
products which protect buildings from the people who use them and people from buildings they use every day. The company
specializes in serving healthcare, senior living, corporate, educational and government facilities, as well as designers and general
contractors.
“We’ve been a supplier to Hinkel for years, and know the Hinkel family and their excellent operations quite well,”said Marc
Holland, President. “This is a win-win in that Hinkel gains from Inpro’s domestic and international reach, and we gain through
their product offerings, and by establishing an eastern U.S. manufacturing, distribution and installation hub in Charlotte.”
“Inpro enhances the Hinkel business model in many ways,”said Teresa Hinkel, general manager of the new subsidiary.“As a family
run businesses, we share a passion for exceptional product quality, professional installation and outstanding customer service.
Our customers will benefit from Inpro’s wide variety of products and services and short lead times. Our employees will have
access to generous benefits and opportunities for advancement. We are enthusiastic about our future with Inpro and the positive
impact it will have with our community, our customers, our employees and our industry.”
In spring 2015, Inpro announced Ascend™ Elevator Protect Systems, the newest addition to our line of interior architectural
products. Ascend™ ensures that Inpro’s devotion to protecting the appearance of buildings and the health and safety of the
people who use them every day is taken to a new level. Ascend™ now provides elevators with the same great protection Inpro
has provided for more than 30 years.
Each cab will be installed with Inpro’s Palladium® Beveled Edge Wall Panels designed to withstand the toughest abuse. Palladium®
panels are more durable than real wood, feature Edge Protectant Technology™ and have a Class A fire rating.
“When protecting buildings, there is usually a give-take relationship between protection and aesthetics,”Mark Alan, Senior Vice
President of Product Management and Development, said.“With Ascend™ Elevator Protection, cabs can be just as beautiful as
they are functional and safe.”

SUPPLY CHAIN
SUSTAINABILITY
Supply chain sustainability is an increasingly hot topic in the sustainability
realm. Our relationships with suppliers is highly valued and we therefore take a
collaborative and educational approach to integrating sustainability into those
business relationships.
Every other year Inpro hosts a supplier conference, inviting key suppliers to
our World Headquarters in Muskego, Wisconsin for two days of discussion and
collaboration. Part of the program includes updates on Inpro’s sustainability
initiatives, sharing of best and next practices and giving suppliers notice of
upcoming sustainability related expectations.
Inpro has been a long-time participant in the Wisconsin Green Master’s
Program. As noted further in the report the Green Master’s Program is a business
recognition program for Wisconsin-based organizations who have integrated
sustainability principles into their business model. This is a robust benchmarking
application that allows us to compare our achievements year to year as well as
helps us set annual goals.
In 2015 we partnered with the Green Master’s Program to disperse the
application amongst our key suppliers. This allowed our suppliers to understand
the types of initiatives and standards we adhere to through our sustainability
commitment. In recognition of their efforts we awarded the top company in a
small, medium and large size company the first every Inpro Sustainable Supplier
Achievement Award. Our hope is that our suppliers will continue with the Green
Master’s Program in the years we do not meet. We will again encourage all of
them to participate in 2017, the next time we hold the supplier conference.

SUPPLIER COLLABORATION
AROUND PRODUCT
TRANSPARENCY
DOCUMENTATION
It’s been three years since our first official sustainability conversation with suppliers and we’ve come a long way. In 2013 we
engaged our suppliers in the Health Product Declaration initiative; one in which we helped illustrate the potential human
health impacts of the chemicals within our products across their entire life cycle. This process involved educating suppliers
on the market drivers behind such a request and direct business benefits to better understanding the components in their
products. Since the initial request, in partnership with a handful of suppliers, Inpro is proud to say we were the first in our
industry to release such product transparency documents.
A similar project involved our Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs); a document that illustrates the environmental
impact of a product or service across its entire lifecycle. In 2013, Inpro was again a thought leader in our industry by being the
first to publicly release EPDs. We were able to create this first batch of EPDs using primary data from our own operational data.
If we wanted to expand our EPD offering to other products we had to engage suppliers for their primary data.
In 2015, Inpro did just that. We engaged one of our great local suppliers in the launch of a Stainless Steel Handrail EPD. Our
partner realized the business benefit in having detailed information on the life cycle impact of their product; information they
hadn’t obtained before and that could lend itself to operational and material innovation, newly realized areas of waste and
inefficiency and more.
These are just two examples of ways Inpro has engaged our suppliers around significant supply chain sustainability initiatives.
The results have multiple direct and indirect positive impacts not only on Inpro’s business but the business of our suppliers.
As we move into an era of greater transparency—corporate and product—it will be increasingly vital for suppliers throughout
various value chains to be prepared to supply information when requested. Inpro has taken a very collaborative approach to
our supply chain sustainability program. One in which we do not yet mandate certain criteria but rather explain where our
sustainability principles develop, why we’re committed and how we navigate the ever-changing sustainability landscape.
Approaching our suppliers with empathetic collaboration has proven more productive in the long-term and has exposed
areas of business innovation we hadn’t previously realized.

MONUMENTAL GREENBUILD-
WASHINGTON,D.C.
Greenbuild is the world’s largest conference and expo dedicated to green building. A wide range of individuals attend the show
including architects, builders, contractors, engineers, sustainability consultants, non-profits, educators, product manufacturers
and more.
Inpro had a very successful show at Greenbuild 2015 in Washington, D.C. Our booth concept was Sustainability in Motion;
illustrating the complex moving parts to sustainability and more specifically Inpro’s continuous journey and relationships with all
stakeholders toward a more sustainable future.
In order to portray this concept in a creative manner we partnered with the New Auburn, Wisconsin High School to create a Rube
Goldberg machine. Within a Rube Goldberg machine no single function can survive without the others. This demonstration
tangibly illustrated the impact one decision in Inpro’s supply chain and stakeholder community has on another.
For example, increasingly architects and designers request sustainability-related information on products and processes from
manufacturers. Many times, manufacturers must engage with first and even second tier suppliers to obtain the necessary
information. If manufacturers or suppliers do not have the information it proves to be a great opportunity for collaboration and
education for all parties involved.
Needless to say our booth concept received positive attention with Greenbuild attendees. Check it out the Rube Goldberg
machine for yourself by visiting Inpro’sYouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/user/InProCorporation/videos.
On the tradeshow floor, Inpro was fortunate to be situated near one of our good partners, thinkstep. Thinkstep is the organization
we have partnered with over the last three years in our product transparency program. Our Sustainability Manager had an
opportunity to speak in their booth about corporate sustainability reporting trends.
In addition to Inpro’s tradeshow presence, the third annual Road to Sustainability Roadtrip occurred concurrently. Along the way
to Washington, D.C. our Sustainability Manager met with many partners in the sustainability journey including suppliers as well
as enthusiastic sustainability champions at firms such as Cannon and IKM in Pittsburgh! To read about these collaborative efforts
check out our blog archive at: www.inprocorp.com/blog/2015/November
Finally, Inpro is proud to go above and beyond to offset the carbon emissions from all of our employees who traveled to and from
the tradeshow. We partnered for the second year with TerraPass. TerraPass helps businesses, institutions, and individuals take
responsibility for their impacts of emissions. This has resulted in“implementation of dozens of renewable energy and greenhouse
gas destruction projects that in aggregate have reduced greenhouse gases in our atmosphere equivalent to billions of tons of
carbon dioxide.” To learn more visit www.terrapass.com.

PRODUCT
SUSTAINABILITY
SPOTLIGHT
Inpro’s corporate approach triple bottom line performance is directly related to
our product sustainability initiatives. We have made huge strides and continue
to be a thought leader in our industry when it comes to product transparency
documentation. We have begun to engage our supply chain on reducing
environmental and potential human health impacts as a result of our product
manufacturing. The actions we take at a corporate level effect the impacts of
our products and we look forward to taking continued innovative approaches to
reducing those impacts throughout the coming years.
PRODUCTSUSTAINABILITYSPOTLIGHT

SOFI AND GABI-
ENVISION
In 2015, thinkstep, the global leader in sustainability performance management
software, data and services, announced that Inpro, the leading manufacturer of
interior and exterior architectural products, had implemented its newly released
SoFi ts software, part of the thinkstep.one family of products, to manage and
report on its comprehensive sustainability metrics. Using SoFi ts to track and
improve its sustainability initiatives, we are able to reduce risk along our supply
chain, identify opportunities for cost reduction, and increase revenue while
improving overall brand equity.
“We are extremely pleased with our decision to expand
the partnership with thinkstep and implement the SoFi ts
software ,”said Amanda Goetsch, sustainability manager,
Inpro.“I love the SoFi ts user interface and appreciate how
easy it is to analyze the data we collect. It helps us to identify
areas where we can further reduce our consumption, make
more informed business decisions and continue to assess the
success of our programs. It is improving our overall corporate
operations and helping us to evaluate the scope and impact of
our sustainable business initiatives.”
In addition to the SoFi software, Inpro also continued to utilize the GaBi -
Envision software for lifecycle assessment of our products. Since then Inpro has
continued to evolve our lifecycle assessment and EPD program and has therefore
integrated the GaBi edition into our product sustainability program.

SUSTAINABLEPRODUCT
ANALYSISTOOL
Inpro continued to utilize its in-house Sustainable Product Analysis (SPA) tool during our new product
development process. The SPA is a comprehensive and robust set of criteria all new products are
gauged against before approval. While not every product will adhere with every listed sustainability
attribute, this tool allows us to make sure we’re meeting sustainability market expectations as we
release innovative new products.
CHEMICALS OF
CONCERNTRACKING
In 2015 Inpro continued to gather information on chemicals of concern from throughout our supply
chain. Being proactive in this subject arena will allow Inpro to respond more quickly and with
trustworthy information when architects, designers and others product libraries evolve.

GREENGUARD
CERTIFICATION
Inpro has been a long time partner with UL Environment through their well respected Greenguard
program. According to the UL Environment Greenguard website,“Greenguard Certification is part of
UL Environment…Greenguard Certification helps manufactures create—and helps buyers identify—
interior products and materials that have low chemical emissions, improving the quality of the air
in which the products are used.” While many of Inpro’s products have passed rigorous testing we
continuously add new products to the program as requested.
INPRO’S PRODUCT
TAKE-BACK PROGRAM
As the circular economy concept becomes more important to the lifecycle of a product we realized we
had to refresh the Inpro Product Take-Back Program to be simpler for our customers. A product take-
back program enables customers to send back Inpro product that would have otherwise ended up in
a landfill. Customers are able to simply inquire with a sales rep to receive the necessary information to
send material back. We take care of the cost!

LEADERSHIP IN ENERGY
AND ENVIRONMENTAL
DESIGN (LEED) AND LIVING
BUILDING CHALLENGE
Inpro continues to be an active member in the USGBC Wisconsin community as well as USGBC National. We have and
continue to be prepared to supply product information to our customers as they embark in their LEED building rating
system adventures. The most common requests we receive are for recycled content, miles between manufacturer and
project site, miles between raw material extraction and project site as well as indoor air quality and rapidly renewable
material information. In 2015 our Sustainability Manager responded to 226 LEED specific requests; this included
requests spanning across all product divisions.
The Living Building Challenge, according to their website,“is the built environment’s most rigorous performance
standard. It calls for the creation of building projects at all scales that operate as cleanly, beautifully and efficiently
as nature’s architecture. To be certified under the Challenge, projects must meet a series of ambitious performance
requirements over a minimum of 12 months of continuous occupancy.” While definitely an increasingly popular
standard on the market, Inpro received one request in our Door + Wall product division in 2015 for compliance
information to the Living Building Challenge.

RECOGNITION+
PARTNERSHIPS
Sustainability involves open and innovative collaboration. We are fortunate
to not only have a great internal group of folks working to continuously
improve but also a fantastic network of partners from across the country
and globe that help challenge and propel our sustainability commitment
forward.

WISCONSINSUSTAINABLE
BUSINESS COUNCIL AND
THE GREEN MASTER’S
PROGRAM
Inpro has partnered with the Wisconsin Sustainable Business Council (WSBC) over the past several years as
our Sustainability Manager has taken a leadership role on the Board of Directors. The WSBC is a network of
Wisconsin businesses and organizations that are interested in, or actively responding to, the challenge of
sustainability. Many businesses find themselves challenged by stakeholders to describe what they are doing
in this field. The Council is designed to bring businesses together and provide resources to help businesses on
their path toward being more sustainable. You may learn more about the WSBC by checking out the website
at http://www.wisconsinsustainability.com/.
The Council provides many resources to the state of Wisconsin, two of which Inpro specifically participates
in. The first is the Green Master’s Program; a sustainable business recognition program that helps companies
and organizations throughout the state benchmark their sustainability progress. In 2015, Inpro received
the highest score out of nearly 200 participants throughout the state. The minimum qualifying score for a
Green Masters company rose from 473 in 2014 to 524 in 2015, supporting the goal of generating continuous
improvement in Wisconsin companies.
The second resource WSBC provides is hosting the annual Sustainable Business Conference; a direct business-
to-business exchange of sustainability experiences, challenges, tools, solutions and ideas. The annual
conference brings outstanding speakers together in a design that maximizes interaction with the audience. We
believe that we have successfully made attendees investment of time productive and memorable. Inpro has
been a co-sponsor of this event for the last couple of years and we look forward to the 2016 conference!

USGBC AND USGBC
WISCONSIN
Inpro® has been a long time partner and supporter of the mission of the United
States Green Building Council (USGBC) as well as the USGBC Wisconsin Community .
The USGBC Wisconsin Community is a diverse group, and is passionate about green
buildings and sustainable design. The USGBC Wisconsin Community envisions
our state as a place where all people live, work, and build sustainably because
where we live, learn, and labor matters. USGBC Wisconsin works toward its mission
through education, advocacy, and collaboration. You may learn more about USGBC
Wisconsin by visiting www.usgbc.org/usgbc-wisconsin.
The USGBC National group is made up of tens of thousands of member
organizations, chapters and student and community volunteers that are moving
the building industry forward in a way that has never been seen before. They are
a diverse group of builders and environmentalists, corporations and nonprofits,
teachers and students, lawmakers and citizens that share the same vision of a
sustainable built environment for all within the next generation. As of today, more
than 79,000 projects are participating in LEED across 160 countries and territories,
comprising over 15 billion square feet. USGBC estimates nearly 5 million people
experience a LEED building every day. You may learn more about the USGBC by
visiting www.usgbc.org.
In 2015, Inpro was excited to be one of the main sponsors for the USGBC Wisconsin’s
Transformation event. The event was held in November among the windy shores
of Lake Michigan but the honey and whisky theme was sure to warm everyone
up. Inpro played a part in helping calculate the carbon emissions from attendee’s
travel to the event and was also nominated for the USGBC Wisconsin Operational
Innovation award.

HEALTH PRODUCT
DECLARATION
COLLABORATIVE
The Health Product Declaration Collaborative (HPDC) oversees HPD’s ongoing
development, maintenance, and evolution. An HPD is an acronym for Health
Product Declaration. The HPD is an open standard format for reporting product
content and associated health information for building products and materials.
Inpro was one of the original pilot manufacturers to take part in disclosing
product information through the Health Product Declaration. Since then,
Inpro has taken an active role in the HPDC Manufacturer’s Advisory Panel and
continues to create HPDs for a number of our products.

CONCLUSION
On behalf of all of our colleagues, we hope you’ve enjoyed learning more about
Inpro’s commitment to continuing along our sustainability journey. We are
committed to improving our practices inside and outside our company walls—
all with an eye toward our obligation to future generations. As technology,
policy, knowledge and culture evolves so does our lens of sustainability. We
are encouraged by the trends we see in the industry, however, we also realize
the work isn’t done. Our doors are always open to those who wish to share
next best sustainability practices and create environments for tomorrow’s
necessary solutions. If you are interested in learning more we do have a full-
time sustainability expert on staff as well as information at www.inprocorp.com/
sustainability. Check back in early 2017 to see all of the exciting initiatives we
have been implementing throughout the year.
