Electri-Flex Goes Green and Donates to
Habitat for Humanity
Electri-Flex Company is going “green” by installing new
energy efficient light fixtures throughout the company offices, manufacturing
and distribution facilities. These new T5 Fluorescent Light Fixtures provide up
to 50% energy savings compared with the previous Metal Halide fixtures while
offering a higher intensity appearing light. They illuminate almost
instantly allowing occupancy sensors to turn the lights on only when the area
is in use, boosting energy savings even further.
The remaining fixtures will be recycled throughout the Chicagoland communities thru donation to the local Habitat
for Humanity in Elgin, Illinois. They will be receiving over 70 commercial and
industrial Highbay Metal Halide light fixtures to use
for future construction projects in building homes for those in need.
Another green initiative has been a recycling program for all
paper, plastic and aluminum products in the office areas. This is on top of the
recycling done by the manufacturing department with all steel, aluminum and plastic
scrap. Other energy saving initiatives include turning lights and computers off
at the end of the day as well as setting timers on outside lights on the
weekends.
