Sustainability Statement

Sustainable design choices are about meeting our current consumer needs without causing a negative effect on the environment in the future. It is about shifting the paradigm to review not only bottom line costs but also the impact of our choices on the health and well being of the people around us and our planet as a whole.

We know that as design professionals we are in a unique position to help customers make responsible furniture choices by specifying and proposing environmentally appropriate products. Products that are durable do not get thrown out. Products that are designed with modular pieces allow you to replace only a part, and not the whole.

The staff at HST Interior Elements understands product life cycles and will use that knowledge to provide the best possible product solutions for our clients.

HST Interior Elements seeks out and offers numerous furniture and architectural products that are environmentally sensitive. All of the products we propose are certified to meet or exceed low emissions standards.

Further, whenever possible, HST Interior Elements specifies products that are manufactured locally. This reduces the inherent negative environmental impact associated with transporting freight and stimulates the local economy.

We are committed to participation in organizations such as the United States Green Building Council and IIDA in an effort to continually educate ourselves and our clients on innovations in sustainable interior design.
