FREDERICKSBURG, VA – Kaeser Compressors recently entered into a partnership with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Energy Star program. The program is aimed at helping reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.

In addition, the company already has recycling and conservation programs in place for batteries, cellular phones, computer equipment, electricity and more.Read more.
