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.

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