Green Power

We are proud of the green direction that the power industry is headed and Kortick is helping to drive towards these goals. As green power is becoming a more viable option, we look forward to aiding in green power transmission. We are very proud of the work we did at the AT&T ballpark, home of the Giants. We were in charge of outfitting the Giant's baseball stadium with Solar Panels and look forward to continuing our involvement in these projects.

Kortick has also been looking internally for improvements and began working toward becoming certified green business about two years ago.  On October 30,2009, it became official:  Kortick Manufacturing became the second manufacturing company in the Bay Area to become a certified green business.  We have worked with numerous utilities on plans to reduce our footprint through manufacturing methods and materials.  Some of our more notable improvements include improving our automobile fleets mileage by over 200%, reducing energy consumption by 40% through a period of rapid growth.  We've also reduced office waste, improved our manufacturing processes and developed green friendly industry products.

It's nice to know that these efforts did not go unnoticed.  Our recycling caught the attention of our home city Hayward, CA.  Kortick has been awarded the 2010 Environmental Achievement Award to be presented by the City Council of Hayward, CA.  Vera Dahle-Lacaze of Hayward said of Kortick, "We would like to commend your business for its notable efforts to preserve and enhance the business community and natural environment."  We are proud of it and hope this to be the first of many awards as we continue to work and improve.
