Environmental Impact

Reduce, Reuse and Recycle

  • Recycling bins are available in every break area on every floor and in our dining areas throughout the Company to help Colleagues recycle paper, cardboard, plastic and aluminum.
  • Colleagues are printing double-sided when paper is necessary. Mobile print also is in use to reduce duplicated printing and other printing errors to save paper.
  • The building’s HVAC equipment has been updated to be more environmentally friendly, and lighting throughout the building uses motion-sensored LED fixtures in an effort to reduce our carbon footprint.
  • Each floor throughout our building is equipped with a water fountain designed to refill bottles.
Our onsite print shop uses paper that comes from mills that receive their wood from sources that practice responsible forestry management, and when possible, the paper also includes recycled materials.
The equipment does not require solvents or other harmful chemicals that are commonly used for cleaning; an alcohol-based solution is used.
A device perforates and crunches used cardboard boxes, creating a void fill material, which is used for packaging instead of plastic air pillows, when possible.
A just-in-time business model is in place for production printing, which eliminates the need for departmental storage rooms across the Company. Documents are printed as needed, which has reduced corporate document storage needs from about 3,000 square feet to 400.
