We have undertaken various initiatives to reduce our carbon footprint. Our streamlined warehouse-management and ERP systems allow us to operate our central distribution warehouse in a nearly paperless environment.
The central distribution warehouse also reduces waste and recycling needs by utilizing reusable shipping totes, crates and mailbags. The warehouse team appropriately disposes of more than 90% of plastic and cardboard. We have installed a trash compacter at our head office to reduce the number of truckloads of recyclable cardboard leaving the central distribution warehouse. Lighting fixtures, lamps and metal are also recycled at the central distribution warehouse and all of the company’s other warehouses.
Periodically, we donate demonstration samples to technical schools for training purposes, and to organizations such as Habitat for Humanity.
