Groovystuff Follows Sustainable by Design and EFEC Initiatives

Furniture World Magazine

In response to the growing need for accountability in the home furnishings industry, Groovystuff announced that it has embarked on the Sustainable by Design and EFEC (Enhancing Furniture’s Environmental Culture) initiatives by the American Home Furnishings Alliance (AHFA). The Sustainable by Design Program by the AHFA program “is intended to facilitate the core concepts of continuous improvement and environmental stewardship by implementing sustainable business practices. It guides companies through measurable steps to reduce their environmental footprint at the manufacturing level and throughout their entire supply chain.” The EFEC Program by the AHFA is designed “to help its members develop and maintain strong, proactive environmental programs. EFEC provides a systematic approach for reviewing and improving a company’s operations for better environmental performance and improved profitability.” Groovystuff is a Dallas-based manufacturer of residential furnishings crafted from reclaimed teak wood. With the grateful support of our retailers and vendors, Groovystuff celebrates 10 Groovy Years in 2008.
