DCL’s Environmental Mission
DCL is a company where environmental responsibilities are integral to its culture. Our mission is to fully integrate environmental considerations into how we operate and use materials in our services.
DCL is committed to be a “Green” company. DCL has been working on a number of environmentally responsible initiatives targeted to minimize our carbon footprint and achieve our environmental mission
| o Minimize Carbon Footprint | |
| o Solar The 2nd phase of our solar system installation at our Milmont facility was completed this past summer. The facility is now close to 100% energy independent. | |
| o Reduce usage·Lighting in our facilities has been replaced with energy efficient light fixtures that have motion sensors which eliminate wasted energy. | |
| o Waste reduction and recycling | |
| o Total papers recycle Paper recycling bins have been placed throughout the facilities. Office areas keep one sided paper for misc. note taking. | |
| o Corrugated cardboard is collected and recycled. | |
| o Water Reduction | |
| o Reduce usage | |
| o Install drip sprinkler within our properties. | |
| o Sustainability | |
| o Post consumer material - These are end products that have completed their life cycle as a consumer item and would otherwise have been disposed of. | |
| o Eco friendly print solutions - More than ever, our customers are depending on us to explore and buy environmentally friendly print and packaging from our suppliers. | |
| o Non plastic fillers – Replace plastic air fillers with recyclable plastic and paper. | |
“DCL is making these efforts not because it is a nice thing to do but because it saves money, makes us more efficient and improves the quality of the whole organization. I believe sustainability is the next big thing and will change how we do business in the future,” says David Tu, President.
Norman Tu, Chairman and CEO says, “Not only are the Tu families committed to going “Green” at work, we are also committed at home. David and Dave both drive a Prius and I just installed a solar panel system at my home. The system will reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 8,940 lbs per year that will yield the same environmental benefit as planting 3.0 acres of trees. David and I want to set an example for the entire DCL organization and we are encouraging all of our employees to actively engage in these and future efforts to show the community that we are environmentally responsible.”
