Our company’s Green Business Practices aren’t limited to our offices, meeting rooms and jobsites. A transformation of the grounds at our Tempe, Arizona headquarters made the landscaping less water-reliant and resulted in an Arizona Landscape Contractors Association’s Judges Award of Excellence.
Thanks to work by ISS Grounds Control, our building exterior is more modern and the landscaping needs less water. The crew worked for three weeks to add crushed granite and give the design more depth and volume. The landscaping is more sustainable and will need little water once desert trees and plants mature.
The ALCA awards program reflects the association and industry’s commitment to designing and maintaining the Southwest environment while applying practices and methods that promote sustainability.
The grounds work was one of many green practices we employ, including using alternative fuels in some company vehicles, rewarding employees who bike to work and keeping waste to a minimum at our offices and jobsites.
