Sustainable Office Program

Lafayette Engineering recognizes the importance of addressing environmental challenges. As part of our ongoing efforts to reduce our ecological footprint, the division participates in Lafayette’s Sustainable Office Program aimed at fostering environmentally responsible practices. This voluntary self-guided program uses a checklist of sustainability-focused actions  to track eco-friendly practices involved in day-to-day workplace operations.

The completed Checklist of Actions indicates the practices currently in place within Accopian Engineering Center staff spaces, along with additional actions that can be incorporated in the future.

We are proud to have achieved bronze level status in the program, and will continue to evaluate and improve practices to advance our sustainability efforts.
