To succeed in business, going ‘green’ is a competitive advantage
LaserNetworks provides steps for businesses to reduce costs and be better environmental stewards
OAKVILLE,
ONTARIO – Jan.  2008 – Good business practices embrace environmental
responsibility. In fact, a recent article published by the National
Post, suggested that for businesses to succeed in this era,
environmental stewardship is not an option, it’s a must.For many
companies, the motivation to get started exists but questions about
feasibility and profitability loom large bringing caution and
hesitation about implementing changes. At first glance, it seems
difficult for a business to become environmentally responsible and
maintain financial viability.”The task of becoming a good environmental
steward is large, but manageable if broken down into small steps that
are easy to navigate,” says Chris Stoate, President of LaserNetworks®,
Canada’s leading print solutions company. “Making the environment a
priority with a clear and comprehensive environmental strategy is a
good place to start.”

From their beginning in 1987,
LaserNetworks® has modeled environmental responsibility and has had the
objective to give customers the flexibility to make
environmentally-friendly choices that reduce environmental impact and
carbon footprint.As Canada’s leading print solutions company, providing
environmentally friendly print solution services and products to
virtually every sized company across Canada and continental USA
including Fortune 500 companies, government agencies, major chartered
banks, and large law firms, LaserNetworks® is proof that companies can
be both environmentally responsible and profitable.”One easy step for
organizations is to look at their large volume consumables, such as
paper and toner, and consider the reduction possibilities,” says Chris
Stoate. “For example, LaserNetworks® has recently decided to
exclusively offer the REFLEXION brand of remanufactured toner
cartridges because they’re known to reduce the carbon footprint by 74
per cent – a small change that brings substantial environmental impact
and at less cost than regular toner.”

Approximately 97 per cent
of the combined components (plastic, metal, rubber, paper, foam, and
toner) in the toner cartridge can be recycled. If it isn’t, the
plastic, made of engineering-grade polymers, takes at least 1,000 years
to decompose.A study by PE International showed that REFLEXION toner
cartridges reduce CO2 emissions by 74 per cent, global warming by 76
per cent, ozone depletion by 72 per cent, and provide energy savings of
70 per cent.”We’re excited about being able to offer clients desiring
to be better corporate stewards, a product such as REFLEXION that does
so much to preserve our environment,” says Chris Stoate. “Environmental
reductions such as these are an example of the small, simple steps
companies can take, to become better environmental stewards – a small
step perhaps, but multiplied by the number of businesses in North
America, the significance is huge.”
