DMW&H incorporates green into warehouse designs using solar panels, low energy lighting, and fans while reclaiming water to use for landscaping. From reduced trash to energy savings with solar power, building environmentally friendly warehouses brings more to businesses than can be imagined. The seminar takes place in the on floor Theatre G on Wednesday, April 6, at 3: 00 PM.
