Recently a customer of ours named Colleen wrote in to ask us whether we adhere to environmentally conscious business practices. We get this question occasionally and are very proud to answer with details about the ways we are currently working to be more environmentally-friendly.
Our plan in 2014 is to pursue a full B Corporation Certification to ensure that all aspects our our company is managed in a way that will support both social and environmental stewardship. But even without the certification which takes time and dedication, we feel that it is our responsibility as conscious human beings to take the initiative and adhere to this mission regardless.
Sticker Customer Colleen:
Hello, we've been working with you for a few years now to supply stickers (of course). In addition to using wind power for your operation, are there any other sustainable or green practices that you have implemented? A client of ours is asking. Thank you!
Response by StickerGiant owner, John Fischer:
Colleen, Thanks so much for asking, we really appreciate when clients care about the stuff that matters. Starting in 2011 we began following lean manufacturing practices which effectively reduced our waste incrementally every year. Last year we reduced waste by 27K pounds over traditional manufacturing methods.
We also are EPA a green manufacturing partner, details of which can be found here: http://www.epa.gov/greenpower/
Not only is our plant wind powered, our supply chain includes wind powered partners:
Cheers and Thanks,
John Fischer, The StickerGiant
