Five Ways to Make Your Company Greener


Micro Solutions Enterprise is a company that prides itself on being an eco-friendly business. Founded in 1994 by Yoel Wazana, MSE saves the environment by recycling and manufacturing ink toners every day. If you’re looking to improve your business by going green as well, here are a few tips to keep your company eco-conscious:

1) Recycle. Keep trashcans in the office for different types of waste, such as aluminum cans, paper, cardboard, plastic, and glass. You can organize these trashcans by label or color so that your employees will know which bin to place their waste in. Don’t throw away your ink toners, printer paper, cell phones, or computers; these can easily be recycled as well. 

2) Telecommute. Allow your employees the option to work from home. If it is possible at all for your employees to work from home, letting them do so will reduce transportation-based emissions. Any meetings that need to take place can also be done at home, thanks to technological advancements. 

3) Purchase recycled products. You can buy used printer paper, inkjet cartridges, and other important office supplies from your local retailers. These products work just as well as the traditional ones. 

4) Donate. If you donate your unused or unwanted products, you will avoid the need to trash them. Donating will also help others in need while giving your company more space.

5) Turn off any computers or electronics when they are not being used. Doing this will reduce your energy use.

These are only a few tips to think about if your business is going green. They’re relatively easy to do and will definitely help the environment. Every little bit helps, so converting your business to go green will only prove to be beneficial. Going green has been working for Yoel Wazana.
