Armstrong has been a leader in corporate governance for many years. Our board has been comprised of outside directors since at least 1990. We were leaders in establishing governance principles, a board evaluation process and fully-independent audit, compensation and governance committees. In recent years, Armstrong strengthened its corporate governance with more detailed Corporate Governance Principles, expanded committee charters and provided multiple means for shareholders to contact the board.

Between us, ideas become reality.



Armstrong has long embraced the values embodied in our Operating Principles: integrity, respect for people and diverse backgrounds, courtesy, customer service and shareholder focus. Consistent with these principles, we take corporate governance seriously.
