ENVIRONMENT

 

Recycled Content

Wood products are made from 90% pre-consumer and 10% post consumer recycled content.  Metal legs are made from 100% post consumer recycled content.  The exact percentages for different sizes ans styles of furniture may vary slightly due to the different ratios of wood products to metal products. 

For example:  A 60" computer table (ELD/SEL Series) is made up to 97% recycled content (pre and post consumer) with 24% being made with post consumer recycled content.

 

Packaging/Delivery (via. CEF truck)

Furniture is shipped blanket wrapped and FULLY ASSEMBLED.  Consequently, there is NO packaging and/or packaging waste left on-site, nor produced in the delivery of furniture. 

 

Packaging/Delivery (via. Common Carrier)

Furniture is shipped inside cardboard container(s) which is made from recycled content and is fully recyclable.  Additionally, furniture may, at times, be strapped to a pallet to ensure added protection during shipping.  These pallets are made of wood and are fully re-usable and recyclable. 

 

Disposal at end of product's life

Metal legs and metal hardware can be removed and recycled.  Balance of products may be safely disposed in a landfill.
