Follow on Google News | The Paper Mill Store Slashes Its Carbon Dioxide OutputThe Paper Mill Store’s natural gas use has plummeted due to precise and purposeful management of its energy use. An annual seven tons of carbon dioxide will be prevented from entering the atmosphere due to these efforts to protect our environment.
By: Carrie Chase, The Paper Mill Store .com The Paper Mill Store’s goal was to adjust environmental controls to maintain proper humidity and temperature levels in its manufacturing area without using supplemental heat. Ultimately this would reduce costs and have a positive effect on the environment. After identifying the natural gas usage problem as improper calibration of two separate control systems, adjustments were made. The result is an annual natural gas savings of 1250 therms of natural gas usage, or the equivalent of about seven tons of carbon dioxide gas prevented from entering the atmosphere. “This reduction in natural gas usage illustrates the corporate culture that we’ve created within our company,” said Brian Cowie, CEO. “We are constantly looking for ways to make our operations greener and we encourage each and every employee to adopt this mind-set.” # # # About The Paper Mill Store .com The Paper Mill Store, thepapermillstore.com (TPMS), is an authorized, multi-mill e-commerce site launched by CTI Paper Group, Inc. in May of 2004 to provide graphics professionals with easy access to premium text and cover papers and envelopes, regardless of their location or order size.
