IRVINE, Calif. — Prudential Overall Supply reports it has earned TRSA’s Clean Green certification for the fifth time.
This extends the company’s status as the largest linen, uniform and facility services operation to receive the designation, awarded for exemplary company-wide performance in conserving resources and controlling discharges.
“At the core of our company’s values lies a deep appreciation for the environment,” says John Clark, CEO of Prudential Overall Supply.
“Prudential is actively working to reduce carbon emissions and promote eco-friendly practices as demonstrated through projects that include integration of renewable energy sources, waste management programs, and recycling policies to help us work towards a more sustainable future. The Clean Green certification helps reinforce these efforts.”
The company was the first industrial laundry chain to become Clean Green certified in 2012 and has remained the organization with the most locations with the designation ever since.
In 2019, Prudential received TRSA’s Clean Green Innovation Award, honoring leadership in the industry in reducing environmental impact, aligned with adherence to best management practices (BMPs) detailed in the Clean Green standard.
Throughout the early 2000s, as the industry developed benchmarks for measuring such efforts, Prudential proved its above-average capabilities in minimizing a laundry’s carbon footprint.
Clean Green certification BMPs comprise the environmental standard for laundries of ASTM International.
That organization is renowned for 120 years involving top technical experts, scientists and environmental professionals in developing and delivering voluntary consensus standards unparalleled in building customer confidence in product and service quality.
“Contracting with a Clean Green laundry is a commitment to sustainability and statement of conscientiousness about natural resources, part of managing a supply chain with maximum environmental protection in mind,” says Joseph Ricci, TRSA president and CEO.
