Computer Merchants Green Update April 2008
Have you seen our website lately?
Because Computer Merchants has been Green since 1979!
Yes we refurbish used computers, recycle parts and turn the lights off at night. But we go further than that ladies and gentlemen. We are focused on being ‘Green’, continually taking steps in the right direction as we strive to use more and more recycled goods.
Our Green products stretch from the kitchen and bathroom with our biodegradable cleaning products straight out to the warehouse. Not only is it the cleaning agents but the hand towels too. So the next time you receive equipment from Computer Merchants rest assured it has been cleaned and wiped down with environmentally friendly, recycled and recyclable products.
Our stationery suppliers are currently producing recycled and recyclable items, from the usual day to day paper products like notebooks, copier and printer paper and napkins, to plastic goods including desk trays, tidy trays, waste bins and magazine holders! Each product in their range contains recycled material and is recyclable too. Their product packaging is at a minimum and recycled packaging material is used where possible – what more could you ask for?!
In our recent Computer Merchants staff meeting the Managing Director, Norman Jefferies updated staff members on the research we are doing to establish our use of carbon and water per person. He has also asked if any staff members have any further ideas on how we as a team can take steps to further help the environment.
Just recently we have supplied our unused media CDs to a local organisation that provides recreational activities for kids to turn items like these into works of art. What was once trash will now be recycled into treasure for Mum and Dad!
Now that I have brought you up to speed with the green habits of Computer Merchants, we will continue to do our bit to remain green with our recyclable stationery, biodegradable cleaning products, and reduce our carbon and water usage which are all necessary steps in helping our environment and future generations.
