Introduction to Environmental Program
Northern Micro, in an effort to become more environmentally conscious has embarked on a
number of programs over the years that pertain to environmental stewardship and comply
with applicable laws and restrictions. These programs guide the organization to develop
products that safely reduce or eliminate environmentally hazardous materials, promote a
“reuse and recycle” End of Life Management model and improve energy efficiency.
At Northern Micro we strive for continuous improvement of our environmental system by
incorporating the best possible practices through our waste management and IT products
recycling initiatives.
We understand that the achievement of reducing the amount of pollution and waste into our
natural environment must rely, to a large extent, on each individual member of the
corporate team. As such, all employees, with the full support of management, contribute to
the goal of reducing, reusing and recycling our products and the waste we produce.
In this regard, Northern Micro also works with committed partners that exhibit a focus on
Sustainable Development and Green procurement. The following are some organizations and
programs that promote safe Environmental stewardship and in which Northern Micro
participates as part of its overall commitment to our environmental policy.
