All lighting and electrical devices (with the exception of our server) are powered down nightly to conserve energy. Where any device has an energy saving feature this is enabled. Wherever possible Solid State Drive avoids the use of incandescent light bulbs.

Solid State Drive has a policy of upgrading our dated technology with newer energy efficient models, improving performance, energy consumption and efficiency.

Solid State Drive shipments are batched and processed in bulk to minimise the number of delivery trips required to move your order from our locations to your final delivery destination.
Solid State Drive has chosen United Parcel Service (UPS) for shipping orders to our customers. To help reduce our carbon footprint we chose a courier who actively strives to minimise their impact on the environment (Read more about UPS and the environment)
