Satelite Autoglass has opened a new eco-friendly facility in Ontario, California, boasting of lesser carbon footprints and a large plant using eco-friendly considerations. Safelite AutoGlass is an acclaimed leader in vehicle glass and repair and a lot of environmental considerations have been added towards the opening of their new location.

Among the highlights of their new facility include efficient electric materials handling equipment, low flow/ motion sensor water fixtures, and highly efficient T5 motion/daylight fluorescent lighting sensors that work in conjunction with roof mounted skylights.

The company is also exploring the efficiency of adding photovoltaic cells to its facility’s roofline, and is seeking ways to increase its use of recyclable packing materials. Company-wide, Safelite employees recycle corrugated cardboard and pallets; its leaders are now seeking methods to recycle its scrap laminated glass.

“Safelite has developed a new direction for the company in 2009, one that is intended to completely change the company culture over the next four years,” Feeney said.
