What’s In Our Name and Logo?

In our case the two words were chosen and combined because their meanings capture the essence of what our company stands for and how we conduct our business…

Clear

Adjective; transparent, free from ambiguity, easily understood and, as importantly - unpolluted, unadulterated.

Process 

Noun; a series of actions or operations that lead toward an established goal, a desired result.

When our logo was created, the gear was chosen to represent engineering, our environmentally sustainable focus is represented by the green leaf, and the generation of heat and power from renewable resources is represented by the golden flame.
