why is it important to go green?
Did you know that most common forms of particle board used in traditional console manufacturing are treated with Urea Formaldehyde and that PVC edge banding is treated with chlorine?
Studies show that office furniture (including consoles), made of particle board and PVC, contain these man-made chemical dangers and are becoming very hazardous to our everyday health and environment. Due to their toxic nature, these consoles are not recyclable.
Product quality should always be a key attribute that represents your company in a competitive market and the cost of losing a customer because of a poorly made product is not the price you may want to pay.
That is why All Source is committed to being a strong voice for the environment within the document destruction industry. In 2008, All Source will move from PVC edge banding over to ABS edge banding and will offer an e-friendly office console product line, called the Slim Boy Green Series, that is produced with certified 100% pre-consumer recycled wood fiber with no Urea Formaldehyde added during the manufacturing process.
The Shredinator II is another environmentally friendly, cost-efficient alternative to the traditional console. Its lightweight design offers the same holding capacities (up to 60 lbs of paper) as a traditional console, is easy to ship, and can be stacked to hold up to 80 containers per skid versus a traditional console that can only fill a skid with 10. The Shredinator II can be shipped in any quantity so it saves on fuel and transportations costs and decreases emissions that are usually produced with multiple shipments or larger truck loads.
Those who go green will comply with federal standards and will have peace of mind knowing that your organization has contributed to our environment. This will give you the competitive advantage your business needs. So be sure to check out our Slim Boy Green Series or the entire Go Green Office Collection for container options for your document destruction business.
All Source invites you to Go Green and SAVE!
