Committed to Minimizing Our Environmental Impact
Jones Sign is committed to a sustainable future. As a nationwide leader in the signage industry, we depend on raw materials to create solutions for our clients, operate a large fleet of vehicles and equipment, and ship and deliver finished products.
We understand the necessities of doing business put a strain on the environment and, as a result, have welcomed multiple sustainability measures and programs aimed at reducing our impact.
SUSTAINABILITY EFFORTS
Our sustainability plan addresses the entire product life cycle. We aim to reduce our reliance on raw materials by reusing and recycling materials throughout the manufacturing process. This will conserve the earth’s mineral resources, save energy by reducing mining and transportation, and reduce waste to save landfill space.
Policies that support these efforts include procurement from suppliers that have sound waste prevention and waste management criteria. Our purchasing practices include a preference for materials with recycled input. We recycle all scrap plastics, aluminum, steel, and paper products generated by the manufacturing process and practice end-of-life-cycle deconstruction of products. These practices contribute to resource conservation.
