DPI of Rochester -- Sustainability by Design

WHEN DPI of Rochester decided (in 2006) that it was going to relocate, company execs knew that America’s green revolution was well under way and, most likely, here to stay. Setting their sights on all things green, they purchased a building located on a former landfill. The facility itself was a prefabricated steel structure, components of which were made from recycled scrap metals. Rather than installing blinds, window film was permanently applied to every window, rejecting up to 79 percent of outdoor heat during summer months, while retaining much of the heat inside during the cold New York winters.
