PIN Commitment to the Environment
PIN is dedicated to sound environmental practices and proper stewardship of our natural resources. We work closely with all of our vendors to ensure that we do everything we can to use products from ecologically focused and managed companies throughout the world.
Our product core is made from 100% recycled materials. In addition, every effort is put into sourcing peripheral materials that are recycled or have a minimal historic environmental footprint.
PIN’s recycle protocol dictates daily collection of 6 key waste categories: Wood, Paper, Plastic, Metal, Glass, and Water. In addition, we utilize twin high-capacity dust/waste collectors to ensure even the smallest recyclable particulates are collected.
Every eligible product that leaves our plant is labeled and dated as CARB compliant.
