Sustainability

Located in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of western North Carolina, we are constantly reminded about the importance of nature and protecting the environment.

• We use recycled steel and collect and recycle all our steel scrap.

• Nearly all the wood we use comes from the Appalachian region around us. The forests are certified by the USDA as growing at a rate of three trees for every one harvested.

• The forges we use to heat our steel are fueled by propane gas, which burns cleaner and more efficiently in our operation than natural gas.

• Our powder coat paint system produces less waste and releases far fewer VOCs (volatile organic compounds) than wet paint systems.

• Our computerized, on-demand packaging system minimizes cardboard waste by producing only the box we need for the item we are packaging at any given time. We also recycle all cardboard leftover.

• Every item we offer is made in North Carolina which means 90% of our vendors are located within a hundred miles of our factory, further reducing our carbon footprint.

• Our furniture is made to last for generations.
