When AXA XL, the specialty risk division of global insurer AXA, relocated offices in New York City’s Financial District, it made the move without sending office waste to any landfill.
Thanks to a partnership with Green Standards, AXA XL diverted more than 98% of its furniture, fixtures, and equipment from landfills through resale, specialized recycling, and in-kind donations totalling $39,580 to seven NYC non-profit organizations and schools.
“As we planned the relocation of our New York City office, we were committed to minimizing our environmental impact and maximizing our positive contribution to the community,” said Jerome Itty, AXA XL’s Chief Operating Officer in the Americas.
