Green Initiatives

CIMG1551-2.JPGSince 2005, Tulsa Cash Register / Bottom Line Solutions, and it’s subsidiary companies, UC Digital Media, Bottom Line Distribution, Cadence Data Systems, have strived to be responsible stewards of the environment.  We constantly seek to understand our impact and continuously improve our business practices to reduce our impact on the environment.  Here are some of our initiatives:

  • Obsolete Equipment – We recycle all old cash registers, POS equipment, cash drawers, CRT’s, LCD’s, printers, and computers to recognized environmental recyclers which reclaim metals, plastics, and other components for recycling.
  • Office paper – We recycle office grade paper to a recognized paper recycler.  Newsprint, where we can, is taken to municipal recycling centers.
  • Shipping Pallets – Pallets are recycled back into the shipping industry for reuse.
  • Beverage containers – Aluminum cans, used by our employees, are recycled
  • Inkjet and toner cartridges – Where appropriate we recycle both toner and ink jet cartridges and shell toner cartridges are returned to the manufacture to be remanufactured.
  • Lighting – All new and replacement lighting fixtures are installed with either high efficiency electronics or LED lighting.  When rooms are not in use we leave the lights off even during business hours.
  • The Products We Sell – Where possible we select venders who also strive to manufacture low energy usage equipment.  Micros is one such vendor with their highly efficient Workstation 4, 4LX and 5.
  • Auto Fleet – We purchase vehicles appropriate for the work we do with the best fuel economy possible.  Our staff maintains these vehicles to operate at their maximum efficiency by performing tune ups, filter changes and checking the tire pressure regularly.
  • Heating and Air – Units are regularly maintained and when replacements are needed, we select high efficiency units. We have also implemented set back thermostats.
  • Batteries – The equipment we sell and service all have batteries.  If we provide replacement battery service these batteries are taken to a battery recycler.  We also recycle all batteries used in the course of business such as cell phones, flashlights, pagers, and car batteries.
