What Previous Clients Have Said

"We appreciate the assistance and will probably request help in solving other issues."

    Mike Henry, General Manager
    Jeld Wen - November 2006


TREE "listened to our concerns, understood our processes and made recommendations that can be implemented in a timely manner to reduce waste water loadings and water usage."

"This is an excellent program. If more of these programs were developed, given time they would help bridge the gap between government agencies and private industry."

"I want to convey appreciation for the expertise your TREE Team recently provided our company. Their analyses and recommendations serve to not only aid Brown & Haley, the City of Tacoma and the State of Washington, but enrich our environment as well."

"The comprehensive look at the facility operations and all the waste generation locations has provided additional information to assist in our sustainability program." TREE's work provided "additional guidance from knowledgeable people who's business is in the area of waste treatment and improvements from a regulatory and practical point of view."

"I believe their presence made us look closer at areas we have overlooked."

"TREE's assistance helped us view different ways to reduce cost, energy and labor."

"The detailed analysis that included cost savings associated with each opportunity was thorough and extremely helpful…Its rare to see a program such as this that is provided without cost to companies in Washington State which takes the approach of recommending cost savings instead of regulatory requirements."

"We have been provided with a roadmap of solutions to our storm water issues. We would definitely recommend TREE to other companies."

"TREE assistance was a benefit by verifying and improving our actions regarding conservation. We would recommend TREE to other companies."

"All of their (TREE’s) efforts were very useful… We were able to get an evaluation of our resources that would not have taken place without the TREE Team. This has allowed us to set goals for waste minimization and cost reduction."

"TREE's assistance benefited us with out of the box thinking. It is sometimes difficult to see the obvious in a day to day operation. New sets of eyes are helpful in identifying doable solutions to waste."

"This talented group of engineers would be a valuable asset to any organization striving for continuous improvement. I would highly encourage any company to use this resource. We are very appreciative that the team was available through the Department of Ecology as a technical resource."

"It is an excellent way to learn new ideas and have the information and resources made known to a business on how to do things better. The team is another set of eyes to look at our processes. Sometimes those of us who work at a business cannot, “see the forest for the TREE’s” (pun intended!) because we live at the job every day. It was excellent to have the feedback. It confirmed that we do an excellent job on almost everything but we do have room to be creative in a couple of other areas."

"Using the TREE report, we redesigned and reconfigured our entire anodize building and operations with the specific goal of reducing resource utilization. The visibility of the TREE team during their visits and the resulting efficiencies of the finishing processes have motivated the operators of the facility to consider each action with an eye for resource conservation."

"TREE definitely pointed out areas by helping us quantify them. TREE was absolutely worth our time!!"

"This was a very successful project!"

"I found the entire TREE team to be very courteous, professional and of incredible value to my firm. They helped show us ways to possibly save money, while at the same time reducing the amount of hazardous waste we create."

The TREE team is "helpful and pleasant to work with... they did their home work before they came."

"I give the TREE team as high a recommendation as I can. I’m glad they came down and gave us a hand."

"It’s a win-win approach! With our limited resources, we were able to achieve remarkable success with TREE. Working with the TREE team is a real education, you can see where opportunities are and how simple techniques can reduce waste and save money."
