LaserCycle's Green Initiatives
LaserCycle's award winning green team is on track to win top honors in the Johnson County Solid Waste Department's Corporate Challenge for 2012. LaserCycle has been a participant in this annual event and was one of the first companies to sign up for this worthwhile endeavor. 2010 was the first year of the challenge and we were proud to take home a "gold" level award. Learning where we could improve from 2010 allowed us to take home the "emerald" level award in 2011. Our sights are set again to achieve the "emerald" level award in 2012. Regardless of where we place in 2012 we hope that raising the awareness of this and other environment-based corporate challenges will bring more companies into an eco-friendly state of mind. Each and every year, LaserCycle continues to find new opportunities to practice environmentally sustainable business practices. These practices include (but are not limited to): Use of filtered vs. bottled water within the workplace.
Converting to energy effecient lighting.
Recycling office paper.
Resale of locally produced products to lower fuel consumption.
Partnership for the environmental disposal of office equipment and work place electronics.
Consultation on migrating print fleets to more efficient "Energy Star" models.
Use of electronic vs. print newsletters, communications, and invoices.
Recycling containers throughout the facility for paper, plastics, cardboard, and metals.
Customer pick-up and collection sites for the recapture of used printer cartridges for remanufacturing.
