The company’s conservation efforts include supporting clean energy and reducing costs, Robbertz said. They include retrofitting lights to reconfiguring compressed air systems, optimizing boilers, upgrading office systems, and co-generating heat and electricity.

Pitney Bowes has also offset the equivalent of 15,471 tons of carbon dioxide through the purchase of certified renewable energy credits since 2003.
