Environmental Stewardship: Green Initiatives at Pacific Office Automation

At Pacific Office Automation, we don’t just pretend to care about the environment on Earth Day. In fact, environmental stewardship is one of our core values all year long. These green initiatives showcase our commitment to a more sustainable future.

What is Environmental Stewardship?

Environmental stewardship is the responsibility shared by everyone whose actions affect the environment to promote sustainability. As the leader in office management solutions, POA believes that it is our responsibility to both mitigate our negative impacts and to prioritize sustainability whenever possible so that we can set a powerful example for other businesses.

Green Initiatives at Pacific Office Automation

Environmental stewardship requires more than just lip service. That’s why we’ve developed these green initiatives to become a more sustainable company.

POA’s Complimentary EV Charging

Together with the Portland Trail Blazers, POA utilized our Terra Energy products to provide 28 complimentary EV charging stations at the Rose Quarter campus. Blazers fans and POA employees are able to use these charging stations free of charge, and our hope is that this will encourage sustainable transportation throughout the city.

POA’s Print Relief Program

While paper consumption is essential for many businesses, it can take a toll on the environment. POA’s Print Relief Program transforms print consumption into tree-planting projects to ensure that our business and the businesses we serve reach a neutral or net-positive impact of paper consumption.

POA’s Equipment Recycling Program

At Pacific Office Automation, we take recycling pretty seriously! Not only do we provide environmentally-safe packaging, but we facilitate the proper disposal of used toner cartridges and machines .In fact, together with the Environmentally Conscious Recycling Company (ECR), we are recycling machines, toner, and cardboard at a rate of 99% or more. This sets a high bar for sustainability in our industry and across the business world. 

As you can see through our green initiatives, POA continues to prioritize our commitment to environmental stewardship in everything we do. Whether it’s sustainable transportation initiatives, comprehensive recycling programs, or simply ensuring that our technicians turn on all energy-saving features during set-up, we’re an example to other companies that you can thrive in the business world and be on the cutting-edge of corporate sustainability efforts.
