Crystal Cabinet Works,
Inc.'s cabinet manufacturing facilities have recently achieved
certification under the Kitchen Cabinet Manufacturers Association's
new Environmental Stewardship Program (ESP). Crystal is proud to have
been directly involved with the development of the program, which is
designed as a framework for manufacturers to highlight sound
environmental business practices concerning: product and process
resource management, air quality, environmental management policies
and systems, and community relations. |
ESP Cert Document |
The KCMA developed its
ESP to build upon its previous participation in the National
Association of Home Builders (NAHB) Green Home Building Guidelines.
Because Crystal has been actively involved in green building
initiatives, no major changes were required in its operations or
products in order to achieve compliance. Among Crystal's environmental
business practices recognized by this certification are wood products
compliant with the Composite Panel Association's
Environmentally-Preferable Product (EPP) designation and an aggressive
system to track, reduce, and recycle process wastes and emissions. Raw
material compliance requires third-party certification and the entire
program undergoes a thorough annual compliance review.
For additional information, please contact Angela Ewald,
Environmental, Health & Safety Manager at 800-347-5045 or angelae@ccworks.com.
