The vision of TheGreenOffice.com is a workplace where human and ecological health are the sole byproducts of operation. Our strategy is to harness the economic power of forward thinking individuals and organizations in order to accelerate the transition to sustainability in the office products industry. Through green purchasing, carbon offsetting, and engagement with our network of expert sustainability consultants, customers send a clear signal to the market that real demand exists for positive change. In turn, this signal triggers the innovation of greener products, services, and practices, narrows the price gap between green and traditional solutions, and increases the rate of adoption in the mainstream office space. We work to challenge the big-box stores by offering the same selection, service, and pricing wherever possible. Our one-stop online shop features a wide selection of "dark" green supplies including tree-free paper and biodegradable flatware, a broad range of recycled content and energy efficient name-brands, and a full selection of conventional products to ensure one-stop shopping. Free carbon-neutral shipping is offered for orders over $49 with next-day delivery standard in the continental US. Additionally, the website features an array of tools, information, and services for easy office greening. As a triple-bottom-line business, TheGreenOffice.com models sustainability through decision making that maximizes social, ecological, and financial returns.
