dcarbon8 and Maris Interiors release Office Green Guide
22nd January 2008
dcarbon8 and Maris Interiors have released ‘The Practical Guide to Creating a Green Office Environment,' available upon request. The booklet, written by dcarbon8, provides a no-nonsense guide to fitting-out or refurbishing workplaces to achieve both cost savings and benefits to the environment.
The guide contains facts, clear information and solid actionable advice to help the reader understand the issues and assist him in achieving a green office fit-out. Extremely concise and accessible, it details practical measures in the areas of lighting, heating and cooling, glazing, water conservation, recycling, furniture, floor coverings, indoor air quality, paint, wiring, partitioning, noise, and safety that can be taken to green the workspace. Dispelling the myth that sustainable measures cost more, the guide’s whole-of-life approach looks at the reasons why energy efficiency and sustainability lead to cost-savings, greater credibility, better risk management, and increased productivity.
