Going Green

At Swedish Automotive, we are proud to be at the forefront of “green” practices, producing a minimum of land fill waste and recycling or composting everything possible. All fluids, metals, paper, plastic bags and cardboard are recycled. Our new shop is built to 2010 standards and utilizes structurally insulated panels (SIPS) in the roof, insulated garage doors, double pane windows and fully insulated walls. Our service bays have in-floor radiant heat fired by a large boiler which burns 100% of the waste oil we produce. All of our landscaping is taken care of organically and we do everything possible to make sure that our little corner of Mother Earth is happy.

Swedish has recently been certified to the Envirostars Program with  a 5 star rating.

One of our goals for the future is to install solar panels on the roof of our new shop building. The roof was designed with solar panels in mind, and as the technology becomes more affordable, we will be installing one or more panel arrays on our south-facing slanted roofs.
