How to Make Your Office More Sustainable

Our Top Tips for Going the Extra Mile!

Here in the QD Office we’re always trying to make sure that we’re living as sustainable a lifestyle as possible. After all our three pillars are Innovation, Authenticity and Sustainability.

We’ve compiled a list of some of our top tips to making your office more sustainable.

1. Turn Off Electronics

Last to leave? Make sure the lights are off and reduce your energy consumption. Same goes for anything that’s using electricity - heating, computers, printers etc! If it’s not being used, make sure it’s not using unnecessary electricity. 

2. Go Paperless

Instead of notes and posts around the office, make an effort to send them digitally or create an online drive that can collect any company information that may need to be shared. Obviously it’s difficult to go completely paper free, but steps towards using less can make a huge difference to the environment

3. Check Your Products

Whether its cleaning products or office stationery, it’s worth having a search for the most environmentally friendly version. Instead of purchasing commercial products, there's opportunity out there to make a difference with the chemicals that you’re using

4. Ditch the Plastic

Single Use Products such as disposable cups and bottles are easy to diminish from the daily routine. Having reusable cutlery, glasses, mugs or even shopping bags are quick and easy ways to beat waste and reduce any need for recycling plastics

5. Add in Plants

Making sure your office has at least one real plant can help increase the air quality. This then not only helps the environment but also can improve the overall health in the office.
