SUSTAINABILITY AND
GREEN INITIATIVES
InCord’s diverse sustainability initiatives include a 120 kW solar electric system and a post production materials recycling program. The main office and factory building use efficient lighting and energy saving HVAC and the facility grounds are landscaped to make the best use of shade and water. This is in addition to internal social changes that make conservation a daily way of doing business.
InCord continues to make progress with energy saving upgrades as well as efficient use of time and work flow. An investment in emerging technologies such as solar voltaic electric has enabled an increased level of energy independence. This type of investing is not only responsible social practice, its responsible business. Green supply chain purchasing reinforces our own sustainable policies in a broad reaching way. Encouraging others to follow our examples adds a cumulative impact by making ever-changing improvements to the world around us.
SOLAR ELECTRIC POWER GENERATION AT INCORD
In the spring of 2013, InCord made a significant shift in its approach to energy by becoming an independent producer of sustainable electric power. This move involved the installation of 504 Photovoltaic (PV) solar panels on the roof of the company’s facilities, which were completed in just three months. Upon activation, the PV solar electric system instantly met 90 percent of the company’s yearly energy requirements and 100 percent of all electric usage. In addition, the system produces excess power, which is sold back to the electric utility through the same power lines the company previously used for power purchases. InCord’s sustainability vision outlines the company’s commitment to improving the Earth’s ecosystem and promoting healthy living while leaving no negative impact.
