MINIMIZING ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
As a nationally acclaimed direct marketing services provider, we have a responsibility to do our best to reduce our environmental impact.
Polaris Direct has achieved certification through the Sustainable Green Printing (SGP) Partnership for our printing practices and manufacturing operations. The SGP encourages participation in the worldwide movement to reduce environmental impact and increase social responsibility within the printing industry. This certification is given to those who have built an ongoing sustainable approach to doing business every day.
Additionally, we have earned a Silver rating (top 86th percentile) from EcoVadis for sustainability. And Polaris Direct has taken the DMA Green 15 Pledge, committing to follow a set of operating principles for efficient and responsible marketing that affect environmental performance.
We’ve taken significant steps to improve the efficiency of our office and production floor, reducing energy usage via motion-activated lighting and heat redistribution, implementing a robust recycling program, and most recently, installing LED lighting throughout our facility to help decrease our carbon footprint.
