Furnitureland South unveils Eco-Friendly Furniture Gallery

Furnitureland South is announced the opening of High Point’s first green furniture gallery. The Eco-Link will be located in the glass-encased walkway connecting the Mart and Showroom buildings on the Furnitureland South campus. The official opening of the Eco-Link is scheduled for Saturday, June 20, 2009, at 2:00 PM with remarks from Jason Harris, Executive Vice President; Jeff Hiller, President of the Sustainable Furnishings Council; and Christina Loth, Vice President Engineering of Stanley Furniture. The opening of the Eco-Link is part of Furnitureland South’s month-long “Dream in Color” event, which has featured seminars and demonstrations designed to educate customers about how to bring color into their own Dream Homes.

The opening of the Eco-Link follows Furnitureland South’s decision to join the Sustainable Furnishings Council.  Many of the manufacturers showcased in the Eco-Link are members of the SFC. "The Eco-Link links us to the earth and to our vendors who are embracing sustainable manufacturing processes," said Jason Harris, Executive Vice President of Furnitureland South. “This is a first step for our organization to publicly recognize that our earth needs a movement of people to save it for future generations. Our industry can have a huge impact on a problem that is not going away. We just want to do our part."
