Making an ImpactOffice Environments of New England can help you create an interior that helps your organization be more effective – while protecting the environment.
Our focus on the environment is deeply rooted in the fundamental business principals of Steelcase, our parent company. With a century-old commitment to acting as a steward of the environment, Steelcase is leading the industry in innovative strategies for protecting natural resources, creating a healthier workplace and ensuring environmental sustainability.
These strategies encompass every aspect of a product – from actual product design to materials used to manufacturing processes to transportation to recycling. Steelcase is working to reduce the environmental impact of every stage of a product's life. Its efforts have resulted in many milestone certifications: for example, the ThinkSM® chair was the first product ever to receive MBDC’s coveted Cradle to CradleSM Product Certification. |
