Magellan Transport Logistics supports corporate practices that promote environmentally friendly and ecologically responsible decisions. Indorsing green business practices has multiple benefits from living a healthier lifestyle for employees to overall wellness for the corporate building, environment and planet.
Inline with our vision, our organization has implemented several green initiatives supporting environmental awareness and sustainability efforts.
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY CLEANING PRODUCTS
Magellan Transport Logistics uses environmentally friendly cleaning products from Amazon Premium Products, a Woman Owned Business based out of Austin Texas. Utilizing these products ensures the health and safety of our employees, building, and mother earth. https://www.amazonpp.com/
RECYCLING
Recycling receptacles are placed throughout Magellan Transport Logistics operations and kitchen area. Partnering with the City of Jacksonville we actively recycle paper, plastic and aluminum cans/bottles. https://www.recyclereminders.com/blog/recycling-guides/a-guide-to-recycling-in-jacksonville/
Company beverage stations provide a green impact. Lavit – installed at Magellan Transport Logistics by Coffee Perks, is a cold beverage machine whose capsules are not only 100% recyclable, but also provide staff with a freshly made chilled, healthy, preservative free alternative to soda.
Corporate coffee machine, also installed by Jacksonville based Coffee Perks, utilizes specialty coffee pods which are 100% compostable. https://coffeeperks.com/
Cold and hot beverage receptacles are distributed to staff. Encouraging the utilization of reusable cups cuts down on disposable wares. This green initiative reduces the amount of non-recyclable waste sent to city landfill.
AIR QUALITY
Building air quality is a high priority. Magellan 8505 Baycenter building has new and freshly cleaned HVAC systems. Many companies choose to use aerosol products in their buildings. Magellan has installed dry-air scent machines. The environmentally friendly scent bars are infused with fragrance oils derived from fruits, flowers and herbs. Visitors tell us…”Wow it smells so great in here”! https://www.greenairshop.com/
TECHNOLOGY UPGRADES
Leading edge technology is critical to providing the best customer service in our fast-paced industry. In order to stay on pace Magellan continuously enhances operational equipment and systems. When upgrades occur, old equipment is donated to local colleges, youth development programs, charities, recycling programs and E-waste. https://sensiblerecycling.com/
