Reduce, recycle, re-use. That’s the theme for a growing number of our manufacturers. Trendway Corporation has been working for the past 10 years to improve their environmental performance, reducing the impact of their manufacturing operations and increasing both the recyclability and re-usability of their furniture. Trendway prides itself in having the greenest plant in the business. Their story is told here. Professional designers and environmental planners can find Trendway’s response to the HIXSON sustainable design questionnaire that was filed as a part of the GREENGUARD certification process.

A second part of being a truely green product involves maximizing the overall life expectancy of each piece that is put in use. That raises the usual questions of durability that can be achieved by careful manufacturing using quality materials. But there is more to a long useful life. Office furniture and even walls must be changeable to accommodate the changing needs of the organization. Trendwall movable wall systems have provided 95% and better reusability. Sahler sells Trendway and other environmentally friendly products.

VELOCITY is a unique stacking office furniture system that supports maximum change and flexibility. It is designed and manufactured by Rosemount Office Systems

VELOCITY’s unique stackability gives users the power to decide, and then change, the level of privacy in each workstation quickly and without tools. Rosemount’s design booklet(pdf) is a good place to look at VELOCITY and understand how it works.

The combination of structural uprights and rigidly locking inserts create ideal work spaces for every function in your facility. Work tops are held to the solid aluminum cantilever supports by a patented pin that is engaged or released from above the table. No one will ever have to crawl under a VELOCITY worktop to change its height. Centerline modularity makes the most efficient use of floor space and maintains established aisle dimensions, unlike other systems that require you to cope with the creep off grid that occurs at every panel intersection.

Need to change your set-up? All VELOCITY parts are reusable, regardless of the heights of the previous arranngements or of the new workstations.VELOCITY with all of its productivity enhancing features has the lowest cost of ownership on the market. Competive pricing, moderate installation costs, maximum reusability of all components, and the quickest and easiest take down and reassembly process makes this possible.

And it looks good. See the Velocity Page.
