The Design Process

Both the design of the material and the processes developed to manufacture our materials are innovative and unique. There is not simply a utilitarian need to innovate; there is also a strong desire to create something beautiful. The clever geometry of the internal facets inside of the screens enable an unprecedented aesthetic that allows for the penetration and distribution of exterior daylight over the expanse of the material while also extending and maximizing the effect of ambient interior light.

These safety screens/dividers have been carefully designed for ease of installation and fabrication. Their post-consumer recycled content has been maximized and their manufacture does not produce any VOCs.

Sustainability

No volatile compounds (VOCs) are emitted during the production of our materials or during their installed life-cycle. Our equipment is optimized to minimum run times and temperatures. When available, all manufacturing equipment is variable speed, ensuring that minimal energy and resources are used in production.All of our materials are manufactured to the exact specifications of our customers, meaning that there is very little excess material stored in a warehouse. What little extra we produce is used in our aggressive and targeted sample program, which ensures that all these materials find a purpose.Plastic, cardboard, and paper are all recycled at local facilities and surplus packaging materials are reused by local artists for shipping their works of art.Our commitment to sustainability and the environment also fuels our tireless efforts to increase the recycled content in our materials. The high degree of optical clarity required of our raw materials makes this quest challenging. However, we are pleased to announce a milestone achievement - nearly all our materials, including light fixtures, now incorporate at least 20% recycled content.
