Environmental Purchasing

Environmental purchasing is the practice of selecting products and services that have a lower environmental impact throughout their life cycle, from production to disposal. It involves considering factors like resource efficiency, eco-friendly materials, and sustainable manufacturing processes when making procurement decisions. The goal is to reduce pollution, conserve resources, and support sustainable practices while fulfilling organizational needs. By prioritizing environmentally responsible options, organizations can help protect the planet, promote sustainability, and often benefit from long-term cost savings through energy efficiency and reduced waste.
