Sustainability

MITY Inc.

 

As part of MITY® Incorporated, Holsag uses recycled materials and environmentally friendly manufacturing processes to build sustainable products. We believe truly sustainable products not only minimize environmental impact; they also perform their function so well that they last for an extended period.

From the beginning, Holsag products have utilized design and manufacturing techniques along with quality materials that maximize product life span, minimize post-consumer waste, and outlast the competition to put more “Green” in your bottom line. 

The Holsag Sustainability Policy

Holsag actively sources raw materials with sustainable attributes:

  • Sustainably  harvested wood from FSC certified forests
  • Renewable and recycled materials
  • Locally produced and supplied materials

Holsag manufacturing processes are put in place to reduce and eliminate scrap. In instances where scrap cannot be avoided, Holsag recycles wood and plastic fall-off, as well as steel and aluminum scrap to reduce waste.

Holsag regularly improves and modifies manufacturing processes to increase efficiency and reduce waste, pollution, and energy consumption.

At Holsag, we pride ourselves on having a safe work environment by actively training employees, monitoring performance, and reporting on employee safety and well-being.

We aim to reduce the use of paper and promote digital marketing and sales collateral. We will continue to search for materials, methods, and procedures that promote a better environment and that can be incorporated into product design and manufacturing processes.

GREENGUARD® Certification

In society today, people spend 90% of their time indoors where they are repeatedly exposed to indoor air pollutants. Holsag is committed to reducing emissions in indoor environments. This is evidenced by the number of products that meet the strict criteria for the UL GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality Certification.
