Prestige Lexus Wins Certified Green Facility Rating

Prestige Lexus of Ramsey, an authorized Lexus dealer that provides areas of New Jersey and New York with quality Lexus vehicles, service, and parts, has been recently certified as a Green Facility for its effort to cut on waste, maximize recycling, conserve energy, and protect customers and employees from potentially hazardous vapors and chemicals.


Prestige Lexus first won this label in 2010 and with its continued effort has yet again won the Green facility tag (News - Alert). In addition, it has been the only Lexus dealer in the state of New Jersey to be granted Certified Green status.

“It’s very important to respect our environment and to reduce our impact on it in any way we can,” said Prestige Lexus General Manager Joe Billotti. “We’ve managed to do away with a lot of the harmful emissions that are typically generated by auto service departments. That’s beneficial for the health and well-being of our employees, our customers, and our community, which are all important to us.”

Since 2005, Lexus has been a supporter of gasoline-saving hybrid technology and has been offering five hybrid models in its current vehicle lineup: the ES, GS, and LS Hybrid sedans, the CT Hybrid hatchback, and the RX Hybrid SUV.

The dealer has also prioritized the green manufacturing at the corporate level by encouraging waste reduction, energy efficiency and use of sustainable materials.

The seat cushions also restrict plastic and are specially made with foam derived from castor seeds and the speakers are fabricated using sustainable bamboo, and carpeting is composed of 30 percent plant-based materials.

In addition, every Lexus manufacturing plant has achieved Zero Landfill Status, which is achieved once the waste is recycled, repurposed, or used to generate additional energy.

Prestige Lexus is owned by Prestige, one of the largest automotive dealership entities in the United States.
