| GREEN DESIGN
Green Designs are often referred to as “sustainable” or “eco-friendly” designs that conform to environmentally sound principles of using building materials and minimizing energy usage. Green designs might include skylights, solar panels, recycled materials and energy efficient appliances. Green cabinets are produced in a manner that is environmentally sustainable and does not cause indoor air pollution. Indoor air pollution is considered by many a silent threat, often two to five times higher than outdoor pollution levels. There is particular concern about formaldehyde vapors that are emitted by particle board, fiberboard, and plywood products that contain adhesives using urea-formaldehyde resins. To address this concern, green cabinets are typically built with formaldehyde-free adhesives and water-borne finishes. This is also important to those with allergies and chemical sensitivities. For customers seeking “green” options, Kitchen and Bath Depot offers a number of products that have achieved special green certifications by the kitchen and bath and construction industries. More information on this can be found on the links below. Kitchen and Bath Depot can also work with clients to find other “green” products, including recycled glass and concrete countertops Links to Green Products at Kitchen and Bath Depot Links to Information on Green Design
