As part of our continuing effort to lead the industry with the most innovative shredding containers in the world, Jake, Connor & Crew is proud to announce our new 'greener' initiative. Our Senior Management team is committed to contributing to this initiative in all aspects of production and administration. "In our plant and offices, we are looking at ways to reduce our impact on the environment by working greener.", reports Gayle Nummelin, Vice President. "We are also working with our plastics division to reduce the emissions in our production of the Retriever."
One immediate, significant way that Jake, Connor & Crew has implemented this policy is in the manufacture of our best selling consoles. "After rigorous factory testing and development, we are convinced that the strength and integrity of our consoles valued by our customers worldwide, will not be impacted, but improved with 'green' melamine products and edge banding tapes. We have tested it thoroughly to ensure that it will seamlessly be adapted into our existing production schedule. Keeping with our commitment to quality, we are continuing to source these products from North American suppliers." said Pat Connor, President.
