4 Ways Your Jackson Workplace Can Be More Sustainable
Going green can happen in all areas of the workplace. From your Jackson break room to your office furniture, to the office itself, there are many opportunities.
1. Use Green Materials
Be more sustainable by using eco-friendly materials in your workplace. What might that look like?
- Cut down on waste in your Jackson coffee station. Swap your cups for biodegradable ones or reusable mugs.
- Provide plant-based utensils that employees can use when they grab lunch or snacks from your micro market. This reduces single-use plastics, a big win for the planet.
- Consider buying used office furniture. Buying second-hand lightens the burden on landfills. Or, opt for sustainable furniture made from natural materials.
- Use recycled or FSC-Certified paper for in-office print jobs. While you’re at it, make sure your office recycles paper.
These small changes can make a big difference for our planet.
2. Opt for Smart Technology
Tech can help in your efforts to go green. How? Smart systems boost efficiency, meaning you save energy and resources. For example, you can use sensors in bathrooms that turn lights on and off automatically. Smart HVAC systems offer an additional way to save energy.
3. Get New Jackson Vending Machines and Smart Micro Markets
Another way to be more sustainable is to use less electricity. Save energy with the latest vending machines and coolers. Modern options use LED lighting and the latest tech to draw less power.
That’s just the start. Our Jackson micro markets use smart tech to track inventory. This means we know when products are running low. We load exactly what you need in our trucks, leading to more efficient restocks.
4. Add Green Walls and Plants
Adding plants and flowers to the office is easy to do, but brings many benefits. Living plants act as natural filters and can help improve indoor air quality. They can also boost employee well-being as a link to nature.
