Our accreditation under State and national greenhouse schemes
LESS was the first private company to
gain accreditation to create NSW Greenhouse
Gas Abatement Certificates for distribution
of efficient showerheads and energy saving
light bulbs under the NSW Greenhouse Gas
Reduction Scheme.
LESS has also gained accreditation under the national Greenhouse FriendlyTM program, administered by the Australian Greenhouse Office - one of only 2 companies accredited to create abatement from energy-saving bulbs.

Our Company Philosophy
We believe that it is possible to create
tangible economic benefits from
environmental stewardship. At LESS, we use

outcomes, and we choose our methods based
on business expertise with both the private

for the better. For example, we:
- support non-government
organisations and charities through our
business practices
- prefer to work with
ethical suppliers and partners
- use recycled paper in
all our business printing
- recycle toner cartridges through Cartridge 4 Planet Ark program
