Mastercam has made environmental efforts since its inception, before greening became a catch phrase. Efforts made by the company include:
- Reducing the size of printed product brochures
- Posting more content to the web site rather than printing on paper
- Changing the product packaging from four-color printed boxes with coatings to a smaller box using recycled, unprinted cardboard
- Printing manuals on 100% post-consumer recycled paper
A new 12,000 sq. ft. addition features a soon-to-be-completed 72kw photovoltaic solar array to produce 25% of the company's electricity.
Other efforts include:
- Geothermal heating and cooling
- Radiant floor heating
- Spray foam insulation
- Insulation under the concrete slab
- Energy efficient Andersen windows
- FSC certified lumber – Forestry Stewardship Council
- Enviro interior doors – no formaldehyde
- Energy efficient T8 lighting
- Dual flush toilets and low water use urinals (1 pint)
- Super engineered thermally efficient NanaWall garage door
- Solar photovoltaic panels
- Low-VOC paints and finishes
- Low-VOC carpet (no PVC)
- Fresh air exchange
- Herman Miller modular furniture
