We work hard to serve and protect our environment.



100% of our particleboard is recovered from "post industrial waste streams." That means our particleboard is recovered from the manufacturing process that wood mills utilize to manufacture the lumber used elsewhere in your home. Building our closet organizers from recovered particleboard has far less impact on forests than building them from solid wood. Re-using wood fibers to produce recovered particle board has far less impact than burning the by-product from wood mills for energy, (known as co-generation) or sending that by-product to landfills.

Our particleboard already complies with the Phase I, January 1, 2009 maximum formaldehyde emission limit set by the California Air Resource Board on April 26th 2007.

We are proud that the closet organizers we currently produce and ship to the entire country meet future high standards set in California for formaldehyde emissions and air quality. One of our highest priorities at Contemporary Closets is to stay aware and ahead of all relevant regulatory policies that impact our products.


98% of our inbound cardboard from our suppliers is recycled into packing material onsite.
This has significantly reduced the amount of waste product that is carted away from our facility.


100% of our waste product resulting from cut closet rods is recycled.
All closet rods are custom cut to size with our computer controlled saws and any remnant pieces are recycled. This improvement saves time for our customers and is good for the environment.

 
These are some achievements that protect the environment Contemporary Closets is proud to have accomplished over the years. We know there is still more to do and we will continue to work each day to be innovative in the way we serve our customers and our environment. We also appreciate any suggestions you may have. Please feel free to contact us with ideas for improvement.
