Do you know the amount of Co2 produced by one desktop? Well it is equivalent to: The emissions from taking 2,500 hot showers (assuming each shower lasts about 8 minutes). The emissions similar to the CO₂ released from decomposing 1.7 tons of waste in a landfill. The emissions from using a refrigerator for about 2 years. The emissions from driving an average gasoline-powered car for about 1,950 miles (3,138 kilometers). The emissions similar to a round-trip flight from New York to London. These numbers are dauntingly funny. It is time we change our approach to old and used laptops. Got some of them? Contact us. Got bulk of them? Contact us.

Sometimes, we get so focused on helping our customers expand their operations under the expansive Butler Manufacturing Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings that we have to step back and create the necessary infrastructure outside as well. This new parking lot spans over 4 acres of asphalt, providing space for approximately 400 cars and room for product staging. It also features separate lanes for truck and automobile traffic, ensuring safety and efficiency. Designed with the future in mind, this project was completed while safeguarding the long-term campus development plan and keeping current operations running smoothly.
