Green-e® Certified for
Carbon Footprint Reduction
Green-e® is a certification mark used on over 800 products. It’s the only third-party certification mark representing a company’s commitment to renewable energy.
Bigelow strives to produce electricity with fewer environmental impacts to help prevent global climate change. We are proud to be certified for achieving Zero Scope 2 Emissions through solar panels and the purchase of renewable energy credits. This is the equivalent to CO2 emissions from 487 homes.
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Zero Waste To Landfill
Since 2012, we have maintained 'Zero Waste to Landfill' status across all manufacturing facilities. Through aggressive recycling, composting, and material reuse programs, we divert approximately 95% of operational waste from landfills including 80 tons of organic material composted annually.
This achievement required redesigning material flows, training every employee in proper sorting protocols, and partnering with specialized recyclers for materials that traditionally went to waste. Our commitment extends beyond compliance to innovation in circular resource management.
