BURLINGTON, Ontario (Canada) July 22, 2010 - Green practices have become more than just a trend in business operations. More than half of Canadian small business owners are considering implementing a green plan or already have one in action. Initiating green methods into day-to-day operations can lighten a business' carbon footprint, save costs and build goodwill with customers. For companies that provide their products/services online, green hosting is a great way to help the environment.

IMP Canada provides green hosting as part of their selection of online marketing and web services. Philipp Beckermann, Founder and President of IMP Canada http://www.impcanada.com) is pleased to offer hosting that is not only reliable, but good for the planet. "We try to give clients services that offer more, this (green hosting) is an example of that," says Beckermann.

Monitoring emission levels is a crucial step in determining how much energy a company is using. Every amp of power used to run a server can add up to a significant amount of energy use. Through the use of technology and sophisticated computer systems, IMP Canada can take advantage of quality power at a reduced rate. "We now have the technology to generate power more efficiently," says Beckermann.

The amount of energy it takes to run an amp of power in a server is often the same amount the cooling system needs in order to run correctly. IMP Canada has implemented cooling measures to improve air flow, control temperatures and conserve energy. "Using filler panels increases the flow of cold air. This helps to keep the system cool while cutting down on energy," says Beckermann.
IMP Canada is committed to taking green initiatives higher and giving their customers the opportunity to join them in helping the environment. "Offering green services is good for the planet and good for the company. It's a winâ€win situation," says Beckermann.
