Keeping Our Environment Safe for A Better Tomorrow
In the last 70 years, our company has grown to the point
where
planning for the future is more complicated and more
important than
ever. Now we're doing more than just cleaning up the
workplace -
we're doing our part for the environment as well. Over
10 million
dollars has been invested in the very best research and
development
to go beyond state and federal environmental regulations
in each of
our locations. Each state of the art waste water
facility not only
allows us to recycle millions of gallons of water each
year, it enables
us to return water to the city sewer system free of
harmful chemicals
and pollutants.
As a result of this partnering effort with our
customers, Spirit developed
the E.A.R.T.H.
Program which simply outlines our
conscious effort to preserve
the environment. Take
a better look at our towel and oil
absorbent lines to see what kind of impact you
can have
on Mother Nature, by letting us handle your recyclable
waste.
