For major companies in any market, it is not enough to have an excellent service. It is important to be connected to the main debates that are happening in society, knowing how to contribute to every situation, besides creating adequate solutions. This is the case of the major moving companies regarding the debate about sustainability.
Since it’s a service of a practical nature, the work of moving, in all its complexity of stages, systematization and practices, may be a major vector for producing easily disposable materials, as well as consuming fossil fuels. This behavior, prevalent in the industry for many years, is no longer acceptable. We are living in a crisis scenario regarding the environment, and every institution’s efforts are necessary for the solution of the problem.
The re-use of materials, for instance, is fundamental in this effort. At companies such as FINK, there are protocols for the re-use of every material that may have a new function. This attitude has an important impact in preventing the degradation of the environment. By re-using materials, we consume fewer raw materials and avoid discarding items that can still be used in a creative way.
It’s also extremely important that the consumption of energy and fossil fuels be lessened. Adopting more intelligent logistics for the fleet of vehicles, for example, reduces expenses and generates economic and environmental impacts. In office structures, it is vital that certain measures are taken, such as collecting rain water for uses other than human ingestion, using natural light as much as possible, and changing lighting systems to models with more energy efficiency.
At FINK, we believe that everyone must play their part, creating a preservation-conscious culture. It’s everyone’s fight for a better future for the next generations.
