ECO-FRIENDLY FURNITURE… “THE WAY OF THE FUTURE”

You Have a Choice – Go Green!

We are on-board and responsive to today's challenges; we are concerned about our customers as well as our environment, which is why we promote products that are created and manufactured with the earth in mind. Our customers are given many choices; you can choose the materials that suit your budget, you can choose to get exclusive, or take advantage of our typical no compromise bargains. However, the best choice you can make is to go with a green furniture manufacturer. This is an option you may not find with a hotel furniture liquidator.

Our purposeful decision to strive to go green means we can offer our customers furniture made from materials that are sustainable and are recyclable when the used hotel furniture’s life span has ended. Green experts say that there is really no standard for “green furniture” aside from looking for furniture that is built from recycled material (or material that is fully recyclable); and to understand the toxicity of the manufacturing process and to know how a factory is run according to energy and waste. You should also inquire as to what packaging will surround the product when it is delivered to you.

Looking For a Green Furniture Manufacturer

When you choose to go green with your furniture that means we work with green furniture manufacturers that adhere to a strict criteria of practicing sustainable harvesting which ensures that trees are being replanted to replace those being used. These manufacturers often comply with The Sustainable Forestry Initiative® (SFI®) which is a sign that they are buying wood products from well-managed forests, backed by a rigorous, third-party certification audit.

Learn more about how SFI Inc. and how they are improving sustainable forest management in North America and supporting responsible procurement globally. You can also find used hotel furniture that is made from green materials and be sure that the furniture is recyclable.

About SFI Standards and Certifications

The SFI program at large is made up of the following components.

SFI forest certification promotes responsible forestry practices. To be certified, forest operations across the United States and Canada must be audited against the SFI forest standard.

SFI chain-of-custody certification extends into the marketplace by tracking fiber content from certified lands through production and manufacturing to the end product. Consumers who buy products with the SFI “percent-content” label know they are buying assurance of well-managed forests.

SFI fiber sourcing requirements address the reality of global fiber markets and the fact that only 10 percent of the world’s forests are certified. Program participants must ensure the raw material in their supply chain comes from legal and responsible sources, whether the forests are certified or not.

SFI labels are recognized globally and provide a visual cue to help customers source certified forest products.
