ABOUT US

Directed provides solutions that seamlessly integrate into your business. Our journey began in 1980 with an after-school program at a commercial printer in Brooklyn, NY. Starting from sweeping floors, we progressed through various roles such as bindery, darkroom, stripping, plate making, and pressman, eventually becoming a Print Production Manager in Manhattan by the age of 20. Over the years, our expertise and knowledge have grown exponentially, and we continually share this with our clients and employees.

We specialize in providing global signage and branding solutions for your company. Our services include managing localized approvals, COIs, installations, and filing all necessary permits. With global insurance coverage, you can be confident that your project, regardless of size, will be handled by consummate professionals.

One of the key ingredients to our success comes from the teachings of my father. He taught us to stay focused on the task at hand, perform our duties better than anyone else, and believe that our dreams will come true. My father, born in 1901, served in World War II and worked for the Penn Central Railroad for 60 years, living to the age of 93. Directed’s determination stems from the belief that "if you build it, they will come," and in our case, it means earning the trust and loyalty of our clients.

Each day brings new and unique challenges, and the best part is, we are always eager to learn and help.

THE RECCOMENDATION

We just wanted to let you know first thing in the morning that Jared did such a phenomenal job!

Seriously, I didn’t know how he was going to get all of the graphics matched up correctly with the phrases and letters and align and level them with really no wiggle room—he had to do quite a bit of resizing cutting centering measurement adjustments etc.  It really was quite an undertaking! Our structures that he adhered them to are quite an unusual shape not to mention the fact that they are different measurements on opposing ends.

Again, we’ve only been at this location about 3 ½ months and Jared is special, “really special” and I have to say he’s the first vendor that I’ve seen with so much attention to detail, patience, and an unbelievably high standard for excellence about his work!

SWITCHABLE FILM

GOING FROM CLEAR GLASS TO TRANSLUCENT IS AS EASY AS TURNING ON A LIGHT.

An essential contemporary design element, glass separates interior spaces without blocking natural light or obstructing your view. There are trade-offs, however: conventional glass sacrifices privacy or requires the integration of additional design elements – such as blinds, curtains and roller shades – which detract from its otherwise pristine aesthetic.

Smart Film radically changes the privacy landscape of interior design. This features an “inbuilt privacy system” which can be instantly activated or turned off with the simple flick of a switch.

AGNOSTIC BREAKROOM SOLUTIONS

CULINARY EXPERIENCES

MICRO MARKET

Engaging in any activity without a break, whether enjoyable or laborious, makes it difficult for the mind and body to relax and regain balance. This is particularly true in the workplace, where stress can be constant and relief options minimal. Establishing a dedicated area where employees enjoy some downtime during the workday is a strategic move that can reap many positive benefits for the company and workers alike.

The basic principle of an employee break room is for employees to temporarily disengage from the steady stream of daily tasks. It only takes a brief respite in this work-free zone for people to relax and recharge, a combination that brings with it a greater level of productivity, job satisfaction and general health.

Some companies have elevated the concept of workplace break rooms to such a level that employees almost feel as though they've been treated to a spa day during their lunch hour. From mood lighting to nature sounds, plants to distilled drinking water, and cushioned floor pads to massage recliners, a growing trend is to create an oasis where people can refresh with meditation, short naps or light exercise.

ESG COMPLIANCE

Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) concerns continue to ratchet up as stakeholders increasingly expect a company’s business strategy to align with its sustainability commitments, priorities, and requirements. Stakeholders understand the impact and dependence of companies on the environment and society, and it’s evident that sustainability reporting and disclosure are more than “check-the-box” compliance exercises. ESG is about risk and opportunity. It could underpin your business strategy and have the potential to unlock strategic possibilities. For many companies, ESG is about business fundamentals. Our latest survey data shows that 89% of executives are proactively making strides now to hold themselves accountable and drive trust with their stakeholders, better positioning themselves to thrive and differentiate over the long term.

We released an ESG readiness report in March 2022, at which time 21% of executives indicated that their companies had established a cross-functional working group—made up of executives across finance, accounting, risk, legal, sustainability and other business leaders—to drive strategic attention to ESG for the business. A similar profile of respondents surveyed recently noted that progress in establishing a cross-functional working group has nearly tripled to 57%.

ESG readiness and external assurance remain valuable tools in preparation and can make a significant impact on a company’s governance and reporting processes and controls. Our recent findings show that nearly all (96%) executives plan to seek external assurance for the next reporting cycle, with 61% already seeking external assurance and 35% seeking external assurance for the first time. These findings indicate that more mature ESG programs typically have key components of an effective governance structure like ESG councils and assurance processes in place.

RECYCLING 1 TON of PAPER:

• Saves 17 mature trees

• Conserves 7,000 gallons of water

• Preserves 3 cubic yards of landfill space

• Reduces the need for 2 barrels of oil

• Saves 4,100 kWh of electricity (enough to power a home for 5 months)

• 500,000 trees are cut down weekly to produce Sunday Newspapers.

• Recycling just 1/10 ofAmerican newspapers annually, could save 25 million trees.

• Recycling a single run of the Sunday New York Times saves 75,000 trees.

• Recycling all US newspapers could save 250 million trees.

• The average American uses 7 trees worth of paper each year.

• An estimated 1 billion trees’ work of paper is thrown away annually in the US.

• Americans use 85 million tons of paper per year.

• 17 saved trees can absorb 250 pounds of carbon dioxide; burning them would create 1,500 pounds of CO2.

• In 2007, over 56% of paper consumed in the UD was recycled, equaling 360 pounds per person.

• 400 paper mills use recovered materials for their production process.

FORESTRY FACTS

Are we running out of trees in the U.S.?

No; in fact, there are more trees in the U.S. today than there were 70 years ago. The paper and forest products industry plants more than three times the number of trees that are harvested every day.

How many trees are planted each year in the U.S.?

Over 2.5 billion trees are planted annually in the U.S. The forest community alone plants over 1.5 billion of these trees; averaging about 4 million new trees planted daily,

Are we cutting down more trees in the U.S. than we're planting?

No. Forest growth has exceeded harvests since the 1940s.

What percentage of the world's wood is used each year to make paper?

Only about 17% of the 3.3 billion cubic meters of wood consumed worldwide annually is used for papermaking. Much of this wood comes from wood chips and residues left behind from sawmill operations. Over half of the world’s harvested wood is used for fuel, primarily for cooking and heating. Will recycling paper help save tropical rainforests?

Recycling paper can help indirectly preserve tropical rainforests. The trees in tropical rainforests are rarely harvested for paper; instead, deforestation is mainly driven by population pressure in underdeveloped nations. More than 90% of tropical deforestation occurs due to the demand for agricultural land and firewood.

Does cutting down trees for papermaking lead to deforestation?

No, cutting down trees for papermaking does not lead to deforestation. Deforestation involves permanently clearing trees for purposes such as agriculture, development, or other uses where trees are not allowed to regrow. Paper companies and the forest products industry actively reforest areas they harvest. They replant trees, encourage new growth, and create forested areas where none existed before. However, deforestation is a significant issue in many parts of the world, particularly in the tropics, driven mainly by population pressure. In these cases, forests are often cleared for fuel or to make way for agriculture. How much of a harvested tree is actually used? Is any part wasted?

The forest products industry utilizes almost every part of a tree, ensuring minimal waste. Larger trees with diameters over 8 inches are used for lumber and building products, while smaller parts like trimmings and wood chips are recovered for paper production. Natural chemicals from wood chips are extracted for products like turpentine, plastics, and food flavorings. Tree bark is recycled into garden mulch or used for energy in paper mill furnaces. Leaves, needles, and small branches left in the forest replenish the soil with organic matter, helping to retain water and prevent runoff.

Paper vs. E-Waste Computersand Electronics

• The electricity used to power a computer for five months could produce enough paper for the average person for an entire year.

• Paper is biodegradable, and nearly 60% of all paper in the U.S. is recycled.

• In contrast, only 18% of electronic devices are currently recycled, and e-waste constitutes the largest waste export in the U.S.

Is "e-waste" considered hazardous?

Certain electronic components contain materials that can be hazardous, depending on their condition and density. For example, nonfunctioning CRTs (cathode ray tubes) from televisions and monitors are considered hazardous under California law.

What should I do with my electronic discards?

Follow the mantra of “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle”:

• Reduce e-waste by making smart procurement choices and maintaining your electronics

• Reuse functioning electronic equipment by donating or selling it.

• Recycle components that cannot be repaired.
