RemodelWest, a Silicon Valley design and construction firm specializing in sustainable practices within the residential remodeling business has formed an alliance with Crystal Cabinetry of Princeton Minnesota, the leader in green cabinetry nationwide.
Crystal Cabinets is an early adopter of implementing green design and manufacturing practices for their sixty-two year old company and they are perfectly aligned with our principles here at Remodel West, says Bill Reid owner
Crystal logoCrystal has taken their commitment to sustainability so seriously that they recently achieved the coveted certification from the Forestry Stewardship Council known in the industry as FSC.  This huge miles stone is a testament to their commitment to responsibly manufacturing their product and is not easy to obtain. greenquestFurthermore Crystal has developed a line of custom made cabinetry specifically addressing many of the components that go into a cabinet.  The GreenQuest line has been born and with it comes a fantastic solution to protecting our natural resources and our earth.  Some highlights of what they are doing:
  • Green-Core – a 100% recycled material for their box construction with no added urea-formaldehyde.  This material achieves two elements of sustainability.  Indoor Air Quality and preserving our natural resources by not using virgin material for its box construction.
  • FSC Wood – FSC material is now available for doors, drawer fronts, and box work insuring us that the material they use is sourced from sustainably managed forests.
  • New Ultra-Low Emitting Finish – Now a Greenguard approved material.  This is huge for many reasons but it simply protects the indoor air quality of our homeowners and improves the quality of life for those making the green quest line.  Crystal believes so strongly that they have applied their lifetime warranty to this finish.  Makes sense.
  • Green Points – GreenQuest can now provide LEED points, a internationally recognized rating system by the United States Green Building Council (USGBC), for sustainable projects in both commercial and residential.
There are many more green elements that go into the GreenQuest line. For a free GreenQuest pkg contact Bill Reid of RemodelWest at 408.257.4900 or visit their site at www.remodelwest.com and learn more about the SPECIAL OFFERS for GreenQuest.
