| Our company's roots in
the Chesapeake Bay region
go back to 1947 when Airpax
was founded in Baltimore.
With our domestic operations
now located in Frederick
and Cambridge, MD, the beautiful
Chesapeake Bay still exerts
a powerful influence on our
company's culture and values.
One of our strong values
moves us to continually
look for ways to improve
our environmental "greening" activities.
Recycling, reduction
in the use of materials
classified as "hazardous",
and elimination of CFC's
are all initiatives that
we and many other responsible
companies have embraced.
But we want our greening
efforts to go further.
Outreach programs into
the community to raise
the awareness of children
of the importance of
recycling, replacing
traditional lighting
with new environmentally-friendly
lighting systems, and
looking for ways to use
products made from recycled
materials are all other
examples of the efforts
of our highly motivated
and successful "Green
Teams".
We are a company committed
to continuous improvement
in everything we do.
Our company culture is
built upon a respect
for each Associate in
our company family. The
leaders of this company
have a great respect
for the natural beauty
that surrounds us, and
we feel a strong sense
of responsibility to
the future of each Associate
and to the communities
in which we have our
operations. I am very
proud of the work of
our "Green Teams",
and I have a great appreciation
for the individuals who
contribute their ideas,
time, and energies to
our environmental activities. |
