The Green has already started at Accurate Repo Inc
The building industry has changed, We are no longer designing and constructing buildings in the same ways we have in the past. The green building movement offers an unprecedented opportunity to respond to the most-important challenges of our time, including global climate change, dependence on non-sustainable and expensive sources of energy, and threats to human health. The work of innovative building professionals is a fundamental driving force in the green building movement.
Green Paper
We have been using recycled paper for our small format black and white department for over two years already.
Accurate offers recycled large format paper in its facility management locations.
You can get recycled large format paper for any of your projects- just ask!
Reduce/Recycle/Reuse
The use of digital documents instead of hard copies has improved overall work efficiency, and helped drastically cut down what ends up in the landfills. By printing at facilities closest to the documents’ final destination the carbon emissions created by shipping will be reduced.
Accurate Repro continually strives to reduce its paper waste, we no longer print our common business reports, internal memos, and correspondence; instead Accurate uses digital technology to produce and disseminate information electronically.
We recycle paper, cardboard and glass in our offices, as well as toner and ink cartridges.
Accurate Repro has eliminated the chemical-based processes from our printing process. We no longer use ammonia, or a solvent based printing processes, like other firms in our industry
Exploring for the future:
The role new technologies can play in helping us to further reduce our impact on the environment, is ever evolving. We can influence our vendors and suppliers to reduce their impact on the environment by partnering with them to assist in the implementation of environmentally friendly programs of their own.
