- Greener Fleet: By deploying more battery-powered mowers
and hand-held tools, as well as adding electric and hybrid
vehicles, BrightView will reduce greenhouse gas emissions and
increase use of renewable energy sources. Last year, BrightView
invested in over 1,000 new pieces of electric equipment and added
400 hybrid or electric cars and trucks.
- Water Conservation: With many regions experiencing
drought conditions and local governments enacting water
restrictions, BrightView offers superior irrigation management
services to clients, including smart irrigation controllers, turf
conversion, and xeriscaping to better ensure water efficiency and
conservation. Xeriscaping, a landscaping technique that uses plants
appropriate to the local climate, can reduce water use by 60
percent or more.
- Ecosystem Preservation: Every year, BrightView plants
tens of thousands of trees, shrubs, and grass as part of its
best-in-class landscaping work. In 2022, BrightView partnered with
the Arbor Day Foundation to plant 300,000 trees. These plantings
help revitalize the ecosystem, while cleaning the air, filtering
water, and sequestering carbon.
“As landscaping stewards, operating in an
environmentally-friendly manner is the keystone to BrightView’s
core business beliefs,” said Andrew Masterman, BrightView President
and Chief Executive Officer. “We take great pride in setting the
industry standard to ensure future generations benefit from our
responsible way of how we serve our customers and communities where
we live, work and play.”
