Legislature recognizes ‘green’ organizations
The Broome County (NY) Legislature on Thursday, April 24, 2008, awarded Bates Troy Healthcare
Linen Service and 19 other regional organizations, stating they displayed leadership and instituted
creative environmental programs that go above and beyond mandated regulations. Bates Troy
Healthcare Linen Service’s ongoing plant expansion and installation of a new, state-of-the-art G. A.
Braun Batch Tunnel Washer was recognized for the reduction of energy and natural resources it
will offer. Also noted were new technological measures to sanitize the Soil Room and the installation
of new monitoring and metering equipment for all energy, natural resources and waste.
"On behalf of Bates Troy I would like to sincerely thank the Broome County Legislature for honoring
our efforts in investing in green technologies here in our Greater Binghamton Area. It truly feels
wonderful to be able to grow one's business while simultaneously using less energy and being
environmentally friendly. These instances show that the business world and the environment can
coexist in a mutually beneficial way. G.A. Braun, the equipment manufacturer, is engineering laundry
machinery with the green revolution in mind.", said Brian Kradjian, President of Bates Troy
