Fit! Gym Information

Here at Fit, we believe that keeping our Earth clean today and for future generations is a responsibility we should all embrace. Here are some of the ways we demonstrate our commitment to the environment:In addition, most of our equipment is made by Precor, an environmentally-conscious US based fitness equipment company. Below is a statement from Precor on environmental stewardship:Precor Environmental StewardshipA foundation of progressive environmental stewardshipPrecor is a subsidiary of Amer Sports Corporation, the world's leading sports equipment company, which embraces core values of continuously and measurably improving health, safety, and environmental performance, and reducing environmental impacts. Over the past decade, Precor has established a strong track record of progressive environmental stewardship, and gained industry and government recognition for environmental and manufacturing best practices. Throughout the organization, Precor has pursued opportunities to reduce hazardous substance use and hazardous waste, while increasing recycling and acceptable treatment methods. The company's commitment to best environmental practices has its genesis in a 1997 change in ownership, when Precor was purchased by Illinois Tool Works (ITW). A global leader in production operations, ITW placed its stamp of lean manufacturing on Precor production practices. And while corporate stewardship has much broader facets and repercussions than lean manufacturing, the core of Precor's stewardship position is founded in efficiencies of lean manufacturing. Today, Precor's practices include recycling corrugated paper, wood pallets, aluminum shavings, steel strapping and metal scraps in the production environment, while practices such as recycling bins and limiting use of paper cups in Precor offices reinforce the commitment to environmental stewardship to employees throughout the organization. Further, to prevent waste and provide employees with an added benefit, outdated or used tools and equipment are made available to employees for personal use.
