Property Managers Recognized for Green Efforts by CCA

Green Efforts Presentation 1

Commercial Carpets of America (CCA) is seeing green with its recent efforts in recycling. With the combined effort of two of their clients Lincoln Property Company and Akridge Management Company, CCA managed a savings of 1,231,875,000 BTU’s (British thermal units) accounting for 1 year of energy for approximately 7 US homes. CCA honored their clients by presenting an award for participation in the Environmental Impact and Reclamation Program. The initiative includes such efforts as Thermal Recycling and Cradle-to Cradle Recycling in conjunction with StarNet Commercial Flooring Cooperative/C.A.R.E (Carpet America Recovery effort) program.

Accepting the award for Lincoln Property Company was Karen Coble, Senior Property Manager, who stated, “Without the diligent efforts and constant oversight from [CCA’s] Stuart Stephenson, Senior Project Manager, and Allan Copeland, Installation Field Supervisor, we would not have been able to complete the project on schedule. Having this certificate to present to my clients is just one more reason to choose CCA on future projects” added Ms. Coble.

As noted by Ms. Seekins and Mr. Marshall, “We have a commitment to the environment and CCA made this possible through their program.” Project management was through the combined efforts of Sean Flannery, Senior Project Manager, and Scott Averys, Project Manager. “CCA has provided these reclamation programs for some seven years and its time we acknowledged our clients who make its success possible,” said Ralph Grove, Vice President and Commercial Group Manager at CCA.
