GET EVERYONE INVOLVED

First and most important, to be a eco-friendly business, everyone at the company must be involved. Everyone can contribute with ideas to help your business help the environment.

RECYCLE

These are the 3 keywords that inspire the eco-friendly business. Everything you can reduce, like energy, or reuse, like boxes, or recycle like paper, will contribute to make your company greener.

When you aren’t at the office, or just don’t use some equipment, it is a good policy to turn off the equipment. This can reduce the energy used by 25%.

LIGHTING

Switch to energy-efficient fluorescent light bulbs instead of using traditional incandescent bulbs. These can use 75% less energy.

PRINT DOUBLE-

SENSORS AND
