   Having a steel hold on the competition for the last 60 years!By mastering both the strategic and tactical sides of the merchandising business, we have a stronger set of capabilities than anyone to help our partners. And that is what UD Direct is all about, taking care of its partners. Our team members have many varied backgrounds and talents, yet all come together with one goal in mind: To provide the highest level of service to our clients while simultaneously designing efficient, innovative retail solutions that benefit the client as well as the environment. At UD Direct, we firmly believe that a good partner stands for something besides profits. That\'s why we have a continuous leadership commitment to environmentally-friendly initiatives that deliver new ways to reduce and recycle. Our use of steel, one of the greenest, most recyclable materials available in the design and implementation of permanent display programs, is one key. But in the past 5 years, we have also reduced our consumption of electricity by 24% and our natural gas usage by 36% through innovative green practices. Even more impressive is that these reductions occurred during a period where we grew our operations by 35%. Such success requires a dedication to environmental sustainability as a means to doing good business.
