GOING BEYOND WHAT IS EXPECTED

Most of their  environmental impacts relate to the design and manufacture of their products – the materials they use, how products are designed, made and transported, and how they perform in their customers’ spaces. Eighty percent of their component parts are manufactured in-house. This affords us unprecedented control of their manufacturing process, enabling us to challenge the status quo and go well beyond the minimum requirements for third-party certification. They’ve chosen the following Foundation Programs because they can use them as tools to push us further and go beyond what is expected.

They include:

  • ISO 14001: Environmental Management System to reduce environmental impact
  • DfE: 11 Design for Environment guidelines addressing a product’s entire life at the design stage
  • FSC: Preserving forests
  • GREENGUARD: Improving indoor air quality
  • BIFMA e3 Level: Reducing environmental and social impacts of furniture within the built environment
  • SCS Global Services: Leadership in environmental and sustainability certification, auditing, testing, and standards
  • LEED: Reducing environmental impact within the built environment
