Mariart's Mariangela Boland receiving their ecoBiz Partner certificate from Minister Darling
Mariart Design Studio is a brand and creative agency, located in Corinda, with clients throughout Australia and overseas. Mariart reduced their electricity usage by replacing lighting with more energy efficient alternatives, switching off lights in unattended rooms, switching off air conditioning after hours and leasing a more energy efficient printer. They also purchase Greenpower to offset 25 per cent of their carbon emissions and plant one tree per client job to further help offset emissions. Paper usage and waste paper has been reduced by printing double-sided and reusing scrap paper for draft prints.
