Green Design & Build
Our Commitment to Sustainability
Environmental Works is always searching for products and practices that are sustainable and responsible. We use reclaimed, recycled, and FSC certified building materials as much as possible, and always encourage them. We also encourage formaldehyde-free and low VOC (volatile organic compounds) products including flooring, cabinets, insulation, caulks and adhesives, and paint.
- » Integration of science, green design, and custom craftsmanship
- » Dedication and passion for protecting the environment

Your indoor air quality and physical health is important to us! Improving a customer’s energy efficiency through conservation, as well as upgrading windows, insulation, appliances, and fixtures is an important part of every project we complete. Recycling plastics, cardboard, and other containers; using paper and re-usable canvas for covering work areas; and pushing recycled or reclaimed products are but a few ways that we demonstrate our dedication to sustainability, one project at a time.
