A corporate 'green initiative' is more than recycling a water bottle or turning the lights off at night. MILESTONE’s green initiative includes using, video conferencing technology, mobile solutions and Energy StarTM approved products to reduce its carbon footprint and bring eco-friendly cost savings. More of our green technology includes:
Our Company Computers:
  • All new computers purchased use Intel’s new, more power-efficient “Core 2” designs.
  • Our Lenovo ThinkPads have modern Core 2 Duo processors. ThinkPads use as little as 1/5th the power of a desktop PC. MILESTONE chose the ThinkPad because of its durability and long lifespan.
  • Our iMacs are green on a number of levels. They include a highly efficient power supply, use advanced power management, are Energy StarTM qualified, are free of many harmful toxins, including mercury, arsenic, BFRs, and PVC, and have earned EPEAT Gold status for responsible manufacture, energy efficiency, and recyclability.
Our Company Servers:
  • MILESTONE takes server virtualization seriously by consolidating servers with existing ones.
  • Many servers are run through power distribution units monitored for power consumption and can be turned on and off remotely.

These translate into energy and electricity savings. MILESTONE’s goal is energy conservation. As more efficient technology is introduced into the marketplace, MILESTONE leads clients showing them how quickly our solutions pay for themselves.

There's no reason to wait.
