Zero Waste Programs
First Star is ready to help make your company’s goal of becoming a zero waste business a reality. A zero waste program can be difficult to fully implement, but the twin goals of saving money on resource management and reducing your business’ environmental impact are worth pursuing for any company. Our resource management professionals have the knowledge and experience to make your office as efficient as possible. Benefits to a zero waste workplace include:
Protect the Environment
Part of being a business owner means being responsible about the way your office impacts the environment and the community. Recycling really can have a tremendous impact on your local environment; it reduces 10 major types of air pollutants and eight categories of water pollutants. A zero waste program means your office is doing its part.
Save Money and help the Economy
Saving resources means saving money. In fact, if you qualify for our mill direct brokerage program, we can even help earn your business money for used materials. Recycling also boosts the local economy. For every one job in recycling collection, there are up to eight jobs created for manufacturing the recovered materials.
Promote Your Business
People like to know that they are supporting a business that makes a positive impact in the local community. In addition, evidence increasingly shows that employees are actively seeking and are more motivated to work in an office that they see as forward thinking. This boosts morale and decreases employee turnover.
Our zero waste programs are just a small portion of our comprehensive waste management services, which are all designed to help your business save money while maintaining best practice resource management processes. The experienced professionals at First Star are dedicated to helping you face the unique material challenges of your business with a wide variety of fully customizable services.
