The Salt Lake Chamber recently announced a program for businesses to be recognized for efforts to clean up the air pollution. This program and the Salt Lake City e2 business programs are no-brainers for us as we constantly strive to run a business that is environmentally and economically beneficial. We applaud the efforts of Salt Lake City and the Salt Lake Chamber for recognizing the importance of sustainability.

So what is Granite Office Supplies doing to make us a Clean Air Champion? We’re glad you asked:

1. Every vehicle owned by Granite Office Supplies runs on natural gas – this significantly reduces emissions, saves money on fuel and supports domestically produced fuel (win-win-win)
2. Paperless invoicing and statements to customers reduces fuel usage and emissions that would be produced by the postal service or other delivery methods
3. Implementing best practices to help customers recycle old electronics, cardboard boxes and used toners. We will either pick up used electronics when our drivers bring a delivery or help you to get our friends from SBK recycling to pick it up from your business.
4. Making customers aware of environmentally friendly products that are SFI certified or contain recycled content.

Join us in helping improve the quality of air in the Salt Lake valley. Help your company become a Clean Air Champion. Let’s all make a difference together. One of your goals to be a Clean Air Champion could be to use environmentally conscious suppliers for your business needs. If you need help finding such a source for office supplies and furniture just give us a call and we will point you in the right direction (hint: it’s us).
