Reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

We are committed to reducing our carbon footprint. This mentality is embedded in our culture and our business practices, which includes continually upgrading and investing in more energy-efficient technology and equipment.

Comprehensive recycling program.

We have a comprehensive recycling plan with six streams of waste to keep materials from landfills. In our offices, we recycle all shredded paper and paper towels waste. Our employees are educated on and encouraged to take advantage of organic bins and our different recycling programs, as well as filtered water coolers in order to reduce use of single-use plastic in the workplace.

Reducing paper usage.

Being green is a priority when we develop and enhance our products. In 2009, we introduced touch screen classification, taking a huge step in reducing our paper waste in a paperless business-processing environment.
