Chromcraft is committed to our environment. Detailed below are just a few of the many environmental initiatives Chromcraft is currently incorporated into the manufacturing process.
Cradle to Cradle Practices
Our Cradle to Cradle philosophy and practices provide us a tangible means of maintaining and adding products with environmentally-intelligent design and it helps our customers purchase and specify products that are pursuing a broader definition of quality. This equates to our use of environmentally safe, sustainable and healthy materials; design for material re-utilization such as recycling or composting; the use of renewable energy and energy efficiency; efficient use of water, maximum water quality associated with production; and instituting strategies for greater social responsibility.
Recycling and Sustainability Practices
Cardboard cartons are broken down and recycled in two ways.
First, cartons that we cannot reuse in house or through Supplier agreements for return and re-use, are broken down and stacked in racks on top of our regular scrap skid locations. A forklift Driver then comes around and collects the scrap cartons and delivers them to our carton compress where the cartons are crushed and banded. The banded cartons are then removed and stored until picked up by the Recycler.
Second, cartons are reusable through Supplier agreements. One of our local Suppliers and Chromcraft have a carton re-use agreement whereby Chromcraft breaks down the taped cartons and stores them in racks. Daily these cartons are gathered and stored. When the Supplier delivers raw materials to Chromcraft the reusable cartons are loaded on the delivery truck and returned to the Suppliers facility for reuse. When cartons are considered to be unusable then they are sent to our carton compress and bundled for resale to the recycler.
