Form Meets Function Great design is meant to work with you - to feel good in your hand, to always have your back and to support you in every move you make. Don’t Box Us In Design isn’t just squares, specially when it comes to innovative packaging solutions that are safer, smarter, more efficient, and includes a healthy dose of gorgeous. From a snappy cereal box that keeps your flakes fresh, to a prescription bottle that’s easier to read and easier to use, when it comes to great design, beauty is more than skin deep. Love Your Mother Earth Do it for the gallons of water that are saved, the fluorocarbons that aren’t released, the soil saved from pollutants, or even just because going green is the most exciting new aspect of great design.

One way we’re improving the quality of our buildings and reducing their impact on the environment is by following the Leadership in Energy and Environmen tal Design (LEED®) Green Building Rating System that influences several of our design attributes and key design decisions.

We recognize that we have a responsibility—as team members, as a company, and as global citizens—to minimize our environmental footprint. So we’ve sought ways to reduce waste, use energy more efficiently, and operate more sustainably. We’re proud of our accomplishments and we’re continually improving, one store at a time.


Part of our commitment to the environment includes a respect for the communities and ecosystems we operate in, and lessening our impact on them. That’s why we’re seeking ways to save energy, improve efficiency, reduce waste and use the LEED rating system as a guide for our design processes. LEED, Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, was established by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) as a benchmark for the design, construction and operation of high-performance green buildings.

LEED helps us continuously improve our buildings by decreasing their overall impact on the environment. GreenSpot has incorporated sustainable attributes in stores for years and is continuously improving, one store at a time. We also continue to expand our understanding and design efforts in sustainable building. We see everything from raw materials to packaged products as a valuable asset to protect. Through our comprehensive recycling and reuse programs, we’ve cut our waste by 70%. We’re encouraged by our success and continue to seek out opportunities to expand our programs.
