DOCUmation's Commitment to a Greener Future: How We’re Making a Difference

At DOCUmation, we believe that sustainability isn’t just a trend—it’s a responsibility. As part of our commitment to the environment, we’ve woven eco-friendly practices into every aspect of our operations, providing innovative solutions that empower businesses to reduce their environmental impact. Whether it’s through cutting-edge technologies or reducing waste, we are actively contributing to a more sustainable future. Here’s a look at how DOCUmation is leading the charge for a greener tomorrow.

Paper Reduction & Waste Minimization

Reducing paper waste is one of the simplest yet most impactful ways to lower an organization’s environmental footprint. DOCUmation promotes practices that minimize paper use, starting with automatic duplex printing, which ensures both sides of the paper are used, reducing waste significantly. Additionally, we offer the “2-up/4-up” functionality that allows users to print multiple pages on a single sheet—maximizing efficiency while minimizing resource use.

To take things even further, we provide paper with up to 100% recycled content, helping businesses make eco-conscious decisions. But our commitment to reducing paper waste doesn’t stop with printed documents. We encourage digital document sharing and promote cloud-based solutions, empowering businesses to manage files digitally, reducing paper dependence altogether.

Energy Efficiency & Conservation

Conserving energy is a critical component of any sustainability initiative, and at DOCUmation, we’re no exception. Our MultiFunctional Printers (MFPs) are set to Eco Factory Default Settings from the moment they are installed, ensuring that they operate at maximum energy efficiency. These devices also enter sleep mode during idle times, conserving energy when they’re not in use. By utilizing energy-efficient technology, we help businesses not only reduce their carbon footprint but also lower their operational costs.

Sustainable Technology Solutions

In the digital age, moving to the cloud is no longer optional but essential for both convenience and sustainability. DOCUmation offers application software and cloud storage solutions that allow businesses to store, manage, and share documents without relying on physical paper. This not only reduces paper waste but also streamlines business operations, offering a win-win for companies looking to be more efficient and environmentally responsible.

Our print lock feature also plays a role in reducing unnecessary printing, ensuring that documents are only printed when absolutely needed. These small but impactful steps contribute to reducing overall resource use and promoting a culture of sustainability within organizations.

Solar Power

As part of our commitment to sustainability, DOCUmation installed a 152-kilowatt rooftop solar system at our San Antonio headquarters in 2017, significantly reducing our reliance on traditional energy sources. This solar system not only powers our operations but also reflects our broader goal of integrating environmentally friendly solutions into everything we do. Partnering with San Antonio-based One80 Solar, this installation supports our mission to reduce our carbon footprint and promote renewable energy across the business landscape.

A Greener Tomorrow

Sustainability isn’t just about reducing waste—it’s about creating a future where businesses can thrive while making a positive impact on the planet. At DOCUmation, we’re proud to be at the forefront of that movement, embedding eco-friendly practices in everything we do and offering solutions that help our clients do the same.

By promoting sustainable alternatives like cloud-based storage, energy-efficient devices, and recycled materials, DOCUmation is leading the way toward a future that is not only innovative but also environmentally conscious.
