GREEN Building Management
In the early 1990's, going GREEN simply meant buying paper and other products that were made of recycled materials or could be reclaimed from the waste stream for some additional use. Today, GREEN takes environmental stewardship to a whole new level. It is an approach to purchasing products and services that creates a healthy living and working environment. As a result, property managers and governments (federal, state, county and municipal) are seeking to incorporate environmental considerations in their buying decisions. Simply stated, they want a healthier environment for their tenants, citizens and employees. Many commercial buildings and properties, lodging and hotel operations and government facilities have mandates or policies to be green.
Liberty Paper and Janitorial Supply's GREEN products help our customers in achieving GREEN status.
