Sustainability

Responsibly managing company operations is part of TTI’s dedication to environmental sustainability. Now, more than ever, we acknowledge the balance between the need for economic growth and protecting the environment for future generations. A commitment to responsible environmental conservancy extends throughout TTI as we continually work to reduce energy consumption, paper use and waste output. We recognize that climate change is a serious issue that demands attention and action from the business community.  TTI will continue to take actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from both direct and indirect business operations.

Our Business

We embrace our clients’ businesses and work together to achieve sustainability goals through project design, performance, execution and delivery.

We encourage and desire to increase participation in local and national organizations working to address sustainability challenges.

Our People

In a continued goal to deepen employee engagement we encourage a culture across the organization through active implementation of our sustainability strategies, promoting health and safety for all employees, those we serve and the public.

We are strongly committed to protecting the health and safety of our employees and to conducting our operations in an environmentally responsible manner. 

Our Footprint
  • We are dedicated to a green initiative with integrations of a solar system array on our headquarters office. Installed in 2010, the system has a positive impact on air emissions including greenhouse gases. Energy conservation measures at our corporate headquarters were implemented also by upgrading both indoor and outdoor lights to high efficiency fluorescent and LED fixtures and installing new, energy efficient HVAC systems.
  • We also continue to reduce our carbon footprint associated with our company vehicular travel with the use of energy efficient vehicles. We support the preservation of resources and actively encourage reuse and recycling programs.
  • Beginning in 2017 volunteers at TTI constructed a Monarch Butterfly Waystation at TTI’s headquarter office, which was certified in 2018. The garden was expanded in size in 2021 adding more diverse plants. The garden is successfully being used by Monarchs and pollinators.
  • Bees are important pollinators that are essential to maintaining healthy ecosystems and a healthy environment. In 2020, TTI added two Bee Hotels In 2020 to the property as part of our ecological give-back. Then following In the spring of 2021 the Bluebird House was the new addition to our front garden, as we expand our own “nature preserve”. The native Bluebird has declined seriously with the loss of habitat and nesting sites. In many areas recoveries of these birds and bees are being helped by these shelters. Both the Bee Hotels and Bluebird House were researched, constructed and installed by two of TTI’s own environmental scientists, both with passionate interests in these natural support elements.

Some species need social distancing & solitary places, we wanted to help. So we made bee hotels;)

Ecological give-back: It’s all about the Bees

Butterflies, Bees and now Birds! TTI’s front yard garden welcomes addition of new Bluebird House

  • In early 2022 TTI was a recipient of an “It Pays to Plug In” grant from the NJ Department of Environmental Protection’s Drive Green initiative to further efforts to address and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. TTI will soon be installing EV Charging capabilities at our Moorestown, NJ location. TTI’s NJDEP licensed crews will provide service on the installation. This project will complement our other green initiatives including solar, energy conservation measures and ecological projects.
    • UPDATE:  Early Fall 2022: TTI’s NJDEP licensed crews serviced the installation of ChargePoint EV Charging Station.  Spring 2023: As one of the many on waiting lists, TTI was happy our Nissan Leaf arrived and has been added to the fleet. This expands our commitment to our eco-friendly efforts and sustainability initiatives. This EV will be dedicated to our field inspection, industrial hygiene and due diligence service divisions. TTI has active plans in motion to grow electric vehicle numbers to our fleet.    https://ttienvinc.com/blog/ttis-ev-charging-station-fleet-vehicle/
    • UPDATE:  Early Spring 2024: As part of our ongoing efforts, we’re actively increasing the number of electric vehicles (EVs) in our fleet. We’ve added three new vehicles to our EV fleet, including a 2023 Chevrolet Bolt EUV LT, alongside hybrid models, the 2023 Ford Maverick and 2023 Toyota Corolla. These vehicles will be dedicated to metro region inspections and sampling events for our industrial hygiene and due diligence service divisions, further aligning our operations with our environmental values.
  • As Earth Day 2023 approached, TTI spent time planning for participation in the American Chestnut Tree Restoration project. During the week TTI was excited and proud to plant a series of new saplings at our HQ in Moorestown, NJ.  TTI worked in concert with The American Chestnut Foundation and received assistance from Villanova University to assemble the project. TTI’s staff planted the trees around the property. TACF was founded in 1983, and their work recognizes the severe impact the demise of the American chestnut tree imposed upon economies of communities and ecology of forests within the tree’s native range. Their goal is to reestablish the American chestnut’s function in its native range.  Read more about the undertaking here: https://ttienvinc.com/blog/celebrating-earthday2023-earthweek2023-sustainability-give-backs/
  • On April 22, Earth Day 2024, the team at TTI embarked on a mission to enhance our headquarters’ garden into even a more vibrant sanctuary for local wildlife. With sustainability at the forefront of our efforts, we dedicated time to enlarging our HQ green space. The effort was more than just landscaping—with a focus on native plants it was a commitment to biodiversity and conservation.

  • For Earth Day 2025, our TTI team put our sustainability values into action—right outside our front door. In line with the 2025 theme, “Our Power, Our Planet,” we transformed sections of our headquarters’ front lawn into dedicated No-mow and Wildflower Zones. These zones support pollinators like bees and butterflies, restore lost habitats, and help reduce emissions and resource use. Science shows that even small changes—like reducing mowing—can boost biodiversity and save time, water, and fuel.

Other ecological projects are planned at our facility in the future to further conserve and protect native species.
