WHAT DOES WASATCH ENVERDIGRIS MEAN ANYWAY?
ENVERDIGRIS comes from two words: EN + VERDIGRIS
EN: Means to cause, to become
VERDIGRIS: Greenish blue; a green pigment created on copper, bronze or brass as a protectant when weathered
So these words together ENVERDIGRIS, "to cause to become green" which is what we strive to do with our projects; cause them to become green, more sustainable, more efficient.
