Green Operations

From Lean Manufacturing to the way we light our own facilities, Finelite applies both corporate and individual resources on minimizing negative environmental impact, improving on regulatory requirements wherever possible and continually seeking out more sustainable processes, materials and practices.

Implementing our Landfill Diversion Program, for example, allowed us to cut our 2006 landfill contribution by 50% through recycling or reusing every qualifying scrap of waste, from metal and wood products to plastics and glass. We even save fuel and reduce pollution by keeping component inventories close enough to assembly areas to be transportable by people instead of requiring fueled vehicles.

Our office is strikingly energy efficient. By applying Finelite's cutting-edge lighting technologies in a systems approach that combines ambient, task, accent and daylighting with appropriate interior finishes, we've created a visually comfortable, beautifully lit office with a lighting power density of only 0.65 watts per sq.ft — beating California's aggressive Title 24 energy standard by 35%.
