Committed to a Better Tomorrow

At our core, we’re about people — our dedicated manufacturing community who designs, builds, upholsters, paints, and delivers our products, and our clients who bring them to life in their spaces. Valuing people means creating products with the utmost care and respect for both today’s and tomorrow’s generations.

This commitment drives our focus on material health and transparency. Why? Because we care — not just about people, but also the places they live and work. Together, we’re shaping healthier, more sustainable spaces for all.

Where we’re focusing

We are dedicated to advancing sustainable practices and ensuring transparency in material health. Our investments in the following attributes reinforce our alignment with LEED, WELL, and Living Building Challenge standards, reflecting our unwavering commitment to creating responsible and healthier spaces. Click on the logos below to learn more about each standard.


Red List Free

We assess our products to the 100 parts per million level to verify that no chemicals on the Living Building Challenge Red List are in our products. We are working to optimize and remove Red List Chemicals from our supply chain when present, including formaldehyde in our paper backing and PVC edge banding.

Certified Indoor Air Quality Advantage

Many of our products have Indoor Advantage Gold Certification from SCS Global Services, meeting the most stringent VOC emissions limits globally. In order to meet these requirements, we switched to using water-based clear coatings on our certified products. These products can help support healthy indoor air quality and contribute to LEED and WELL projects. Indoor Advantage Gold Certification is in alignment with CDPH, setting the most stringent VOC emissions requirements globally.

Recycled Content

Using recycled materials has an environmental benefit over virgin materials, and these products can contribute to LEED and WELL projects. The recycled content is primarily found in the steel used in many of our products.

Declare

A Declare label is a transparency document that discloses every ingredient at or above 0.01% by weight in a product, and screens those ingredients against the ILFI Red List. Ingredient disclosure at this level of granularity is challenging from a supply chain perspective, but absolutely necessary to drive progress around material health and transparency. Products with Declare labels contribute to LEED, WELL, and Living Building Challenge, and help support project teams meet human health + transparency goals.

"We're ever-mindful of our footprint and how it affects future generations."

Natalie Hartkopf, CEO & Co-Owner
