Vision Statement

We are committed to producing high quality, durable products that have longevity in the marketplace. We strive to reduce waste and pollution and serve as an example of environmental stewardship in the hospitality industry. Our products are designed to withstand the rigors of the hotel environment, but when our products no longer meet the demands of our customers and we encourage an end of product life solution to minimize the environmental impact.
