Brentwood, TN (June 4, 2008) -- Calling it an eye opening event for home furniture, Nantuckit Furniture Company launched its nationwide Green Furniture Initiative in an attempt to reduce landfill waste and save trees. According to the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), over 8.7 million tons of furniture and home furnishings are dumped into municipal landfills annually.
Nantuckit Furniture Company, a leader in custom fitted slipcovered furniture, is determined to help reduce that figure with custom slipcovered furniture. As it turns out, Nantuckit and the Environmental Protection Agency are thinking the same way. According to the EPA's website, the agency ranks the most environmentally sound strategies for curbing Municipal Solid Waste as reuse, as the most preferred method, followed by recycling. Nantuckit helps with both of these strategies. All of Nantuckit Furniture Company's slipcovered frames are lifetime guaranteed. When ready, Nantuckit customers order a replacement fitted slipcover instead of ordering a whole new sofa. The result is, furniture frames don't end up in municipal landfills.
According to company founder Scott Hill, "slipcovered furniture is great for several reasons. First, our slipcovered furniture is made custom for each customer. They get what they want. Also, because it's slipcovered, our customers can remove the slipcover and have it cleaned. Even better, we archive all our patterns so, even if the furniture group is discontinued, custom fitted replacement slipcovers will always be available. In the end, slipcovered furniture is very family/lifestyle friendly."
Nantuckit Furniture Company is an internet based furniture company specializing in custom slipcovered furniture and sectional sofa groups. The company doesn't mail printed catalogs...which also saves trees. With customers in 49 states, Nantuckit Furniture Company offers white glove shipping nationwide.
Part of every sale goes to Help Feed The Children, a Oklahoma based organization devoted to feeding hungry children worldwide. Starting June 9, 2008, for each piece of furniture sold, Nantuckit Furniture Company will donate 1 new tree to the world. This helps to replace the wood used in the manufacturing of its furniture frames. |
