Sustainability statements 14.3.3
Annual Report 2014 211
Lead and lead compounds
The very limited increase from 1 kilo in 2013 to 8 kilos in
2014 in lead emissions were the result of adjustments
in the calculation method.
PFCs
PFCs were only used in Lumileds sites. As a result of the
exclusion of Lumileds and Automotive, Philips does not
report any PFCs in 2014. Emissions by Lumileds were
3,392 kilos in 2014, a reduction of 36% compared to
2013.
Toluene
The emission of toluene, mainly used in wet lacquers,
decreased by 86% in 2014 largely as a result of phase
out programs in 2 sites in Consumer Lifestyle.
Xylene
The use of xylene decreased by 18% in 2014 due to the
reduction in use of specic lacquers and thinners in
Consumer Lifestyle combined with portfolio changes in
Lighting.
Styrene
Two new reporting sites in Consumer Lifestyle emitted
some 3,000 kilos of styrene which was mitigated by the
termination of activities of a Lighting site in the USA.
Antimony, Arsenic and their compounds
Lighting was successful in phasing-out these
substances as of 2012.
ISO 14001 certication
In 2014, 79% of reporting manufacturing sites were
certied, the same level as in the previous year. In
Lighting, several certied sites were closed, whereas
new certicates were obtained by other sites. After
Consumer Lifestyle, in 2014 Philips obtained a “One
Lighting Certicate” covering most of the Lighting
manufacturing sites. All sectors have plans for new
acquisitions to be certied.

Environmental Incidents
In 2014, there were neither incidents nor nes reported
in Healthcare. Consumer Lifestyle reported two
incidents related to waste water and a leakage, and a
non-compliance with water which did not result in a
ne. Three non-compliances were reported in Lighting
relating to emissions, as well as one incident related to
waste water. The two nes related to non-compliance
which were reported in our sustainability reporting tool
were not material. For discontinued operations an
incident was reported related to waste and two non-
compliances were reported which resulted in one non-
material ne.
