Pinnacle’s Sustainability Statement
“Our diverse team at Pinnacle Solutions is committed to creating and maintaining sustainable business practices to advance environmental, social, and economic improvements in the communities we do business in while providing value to our partners and protecting our nation’s food chain.”
Environmental
Paperless Invoicing and Logbooks
In order to reduce paper waste within our company we do not print copies of invoices or service reports. All service reports can be accessed online via our online customer portal. Billing is also handled via email to reduce paper waste. In our 3rd party audited accounts we are replacing their paper logbooks with online logbooks. All documents can be viewed online without creating additional paper waste.
Carbon Footprint
Pinnacle understands we must do our part to reduce our carbon footprint. We create each of our routes to be within a small geographic footprint to reduce drive time and carbon emissions into our environment.
IPM
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is the implementation of diverse methods of pest controls, paired with monitoring to reduce unnecessary pesticide applications. IPM provides economic, health and environmental benefits. Pinnacle uses knowledge of pest problems with management tactics designed to:
- Prevent unacceptable levels of pest damage
- Minimize the risk of people, property, infrastructure, natural resources, and the environment
- Reduce the evolution of pest resistance to pesticides and other pest management practices.
Social
Accountability/Honesty
We have created a culture of accountability and honesty within Pinnacle Solutions. We inspect what we expect to ensure we are holding our team accountable to our service standards and exceeding our partner’s expectations. We value honesty and practice it daily with both our partners and team members.
Relationships
We value our people at Pinnacle. We don’t have employees, we have team members whose opinions are valued. We treat each other with respect and love to ensure we are all growing as resilient individuals personally and professionally.
Family/Work Balance
We provide our team members with freedom and flexibility so they can be sure they are present for their families. We strive to make sure each team member maintains this balance to create a more positive sustainable family unit in the communities we live in.
Equality/Inclusion
At Pinnacle we promote equality and inclusion through all aspects of hiring and retaining team members. Diverse cultural perspectives inspire creativity and drive innovation.
Economic
Growth
When growing our business, we focus on quality growth and not quantity growth. We choose the partners we protect wisely and ensure they align with our business practices of ensuring a more sustainable environment.
Education
We are committed to providing paths to education to our team members who are ready to advance to the next level of their careers.
Improved Standards
We are raising the bar on what quality pest control looks like in commercial facilities. We practice IPM to ensure chemicals are not applied when they don’t need to be. We also focus on how the pests are getting into the facility and create an exclusion plan so less pests will enter the commercial facility. Exclusion paired with IPM creates a more sustainable and resilient plan to keep pests out and use less chemicals while protecting our environment and food chain.
