GREEN ATTRIBUTES OF MODULAR MILLWORK
Designed for Change/Reuse:
-Structural Frame allows easy reconfiguration and reuse, avoiding the bsolescence, disposal and replacement as common with ordinary millwork.
-Prevents unnecessary resource consumption and saves landfill space & money.
Guaranteed Sustainability:
-Lifetime Warranty ensures highest quality and maximum service life.
-Modular construction allows “Adaptive Reuse” as business change occurs providing true operational sustainability.
Recycle Content:
Maximum recycled content preserves earth’s resources and environment.
• Wood Panels* - 100% Recycled (90 PI, 10 PC)
• Steel Frame - 75% Avg. Recycled (100% Recyclable)
• Polystyrene - 50% Avg. Recycled (100% Recyclable)
*Available with FSC/SFI and BioSource Content as specified.
Health & Safety:
-Wood products conform to ANSI Std A.208 1-1999 for extra low VOC emissions & UF additives.
-Steel paint process is environmentally safe powder coating (no VOCs or HAPs).
-Transparent components leverage natural/ambient lighting to reduce energy needs.
-Easy adjust, ergonomic design optimizes comfort and personal productivity.
-Bactericidal surfacing (optional) eliminates germs & allergens to promote wellness & IAQ
Environmental:
-Local material sourcing conserves energy, lowers costs and supports US jobs.
-Minimizes packaging & waste using recycled corrugated boxes & recycled wood pallets.
-Wood content bias promotes forest preservation and reduces atmospheric carbon. Reuse ability avoids landfill and eliminates redundant consumption of virgin resources & energy.
-Polystyrene production facility employs geo-thermal cooling/heating, uses 33% post-consumer recycled materials, natural indoor lighting and is recipient of prestigious “Blue Angel” Swiss environmental certification.
-Manufacturer aggressively recycles maximum amount of production by-products, including 100% of corrugated materials and plastics, wood products, office paper and aluminum.
-Solid waste disposal reduced by 80% since 2002.
Supports Change:
-Easy reuse minimizes time, expense and inconvenience of adapting space & interiors to change.
-Reconfigure feature enables “Adaptive Reuse” of units for multiple new service lives.
-Eliminates demolition, disposal & new construction to change millwork. Saves money.
