U.S. Linen & Uniform honored for environmental excellence

— U.S. Linen & Uniform, which has offices in Spokane, has received statewide recognition for its environmental leadership by winning the Association of Washington Businesses 2012 Environmental Excellence Award at a ceremony at the Davenport Hotel on June 12th. The linen and uniform rental company was honored for Environmental Excellence in Resource Conservation for saving over 10 million gallons of water last year and for reducing the waste discharged to the City of Richland by 95%.

The AWB's Environmental Excellence Awards Program is a showcase for companies who successfully implemented programs that demonstrate initiative in the area of environmental protection. In its 20th year, the program focuses on actions that create a better environment, products that help environmental quality, and actions to prevent or reduce environmental problems as well as conserve resources. U.S. Linen & Uniform installed a ceramic microfiltration and reverse osmosis waste water system that reduced water usage 50%, gas usage 25%, and waste discharged by 95%.

In May, U.S. Linen & Uniform was one of the first 8 companies in the industry to receive TRSA Clean Green Certifications which recognizes linen and uniform rental companies that demonstrate responsible leadership in sustainability and conservation to protect the environment.

U.S. Linen's Spokane location is at 3012 N. Sullivan Rd, the phone number is 509-624-0808 and the website is uslinen.com.
