Green Materials
AlterECO is committed to ecological responsibility in our manufacturing processes and our business practices. We offer the most sustainable building materials available to create cabinetry that supports healthy indoor air quality while optimizing quality and durability. AlterECO cabinetry features bamboo, a highly renewable, regenerative resource that helps in the fight against global warming, deforestation, and soil degradation. The all-bamboo panels we use for exposed faces are made with mature Moso “timber” bamboo, laminated with adhesive that contains no-added urea-formaldehyde (NAUF) and is available FSC-certified. The plywood used for our casework and other components uses soy-based glue with PureBond technology inspired by nature. We also use responsible finishes (including plant-based natural oils) so you can be sure you are getting the safest cabinets for your healthy home.
