Less Carbon Offsets Certificate

Published Wednesday, February 19, 2020

On February 18th, 2020, VeriForm was recognized with the Less Carbon Offsets Certificate for requiring and retiring a combined total of 72.60 tonnes of CO2e to offset general emissions.

VeriForm has reduced its Greenhouse Gas Emissions from 2006 levels of 262 tonnes to less than 70 tonnes in 2019.  This improvement was made despite more than doubling our building size by 128% from 11,400 square feet to 26,000 square feet.  And our productivity has more than tripled to the point that we now produce more than 300% greater sales per kilowatt-hour today than in 2006-2008.   VeriForm has also increased the workforce size by nearly 40% and increased wages through this period above the cost of living while providing more specialized services to higher-end accounts.  It goes to show that sustainability improves the bottom line and protects this planet that we live in and work on,  and, it makes working at VeriForm more fun.  Our new slogan might need to change to “See the good in our metal fabricating.”
