Distribution Central has developed a comprehensive carbon offset program that is designed to offset the carbon emissions generated by the manufacturing and power consumption of the hardware we distribute, and the freight used to deliver the hardware from our warehouse to the end user customer.

Carbon Credits and Buy One Get One Tree™ are programs that work together to deliver real benefits for our environment. Contact us for more information about our CarbonControl program.

Carbon Credits

CarbonControl is a unique carbon offset program that is designed to eventually make all products we distribute carbon neutral. Our ChannelControl online configurator calculates the carbon offset required to offset the manufacture and annual power consumption of participating vendors’ products.

This is because every product we distribute creates carbon emissions during its manufacturing process and through its power consumption when it is used by the customer.

Distribution Central has partnered with The Carbon Credits Trust to run its Carbon Credits program. The Trust provides high quality carbon credits to offset carbon emissions. For more information about the Trust, visit www.carboncredits.com.

Buy One Get One Tree™

For every invoice we issue, Distribution Central makes a donation to Carbon Neutral, an Australian not-for-profit organisation. Each donation is equivalent to the planting of a native tree in Australia. Through Distribution Central’s donations, Carbon Neutral has planted more than 17,000 native trees (as of October 2010).

Carbon Neutral is a not-for-profit organisation that works with hundreds of organisations to measure, reduce and offset greenhouse gas emissions and support rejuvenation projects. Its mission is to reduce carbon emissions through education and revegetation.
