SUSTAINABILITY

Our Commitment to Sustainability

We are committed to reducing our footprint and making our communities cleaner and stronger. We are continuously working towards certifications and processes to become greener.

We take being manufactured in the USA just as serious as we take our environmental responsibility. We are committed to reducing our footprint and making our communities cleaner and stronger, which is why it’s one of our core values. Our environmental responsibility is based on industry-standard BIFMA Level principles. Our glassboards have passed testing and have been awarded Intertek’s “Certified Clean Air Gold Certificate” for both magnetic and non-magnetic Harmony glassboards that are painted with water-based paint. With Preserve the Environment as one of our Core Values, we are in the process of  seeking and obtaining more green and sustainable certifications in the near future.
