hot tub insulation made from recycled materials

Exclusive to MAAX Spas, the Thermo-Lock™ insulation system now features the eco-friendly 'BlueMAAX' insulation. Made from recycled natural fiber, it is approved by the U.S. Green Building Council.

The insulation contains no chemical irritants, is treated with a borate-based solution to prevent mold/mildew growth, pest infestation, and acts as a fire retardant. BlueMAAX® replaces urethane foam commonly used in "foam filled" hot tubs. The "foam filling" process in conventional spas can produce as much as 50 lbs. of volatile organic components (VOC's) which are harmful to the environment.

Mendota Gas Fireplace BurnGreen Brochure Mendota's environmentally friendly, sealed combustion, direct vent fireplaces with the BurnGreen™ system are designed to meet exacting governmental EPA standards, as well as national LEED and NAHB guidelines for high efficiency and low emissions.

Mendota's dual BurnGreen™ burners are laboratory balanced to create a log fire that realistically duplicates all the different stages of a woodburning fire.

Comfort, beauty, convenience and green efficiency in one unique system.

Traeger Wood Pellet Grill Green Brochure Traeger wood pellet grills use a natural biomass wood pellet fuel. No fossil fuels of any kind are used in the combustion process. Traeger BBQ Pellets are made from 100% recycled hardwood sawdust.

Traeger Pellet Grills LLC is a leader in the reduction of wood waste. Through partnerships with hardwood furniture manufacturers, Traeger adds economic value to materials that were once considered "waste", creating new business, products and jobs. This use of sawdust, previously burned or placed in landfills, results in significant economic, social, and environmental benefits.

The burn system in every Traeger wood pellet grill is capable of a combustion efficiency rate of 98.8% with an extremely high "fuel to air" ratio. This means low emissions and a lower carbon footprint.

The environmentally responsible way to cook outdoors.

Doughboy builds quality products that are made to last longer than our competitors. Replacing your pools less often will reduce landfill waste.
Doughboy eliminates vinyl and plastic waste by regrinding all plastic products for reuse.
Using new electrical capacitors reduces our plants energy consumption.
Our manufacturing plant is centrally located within the U.S., which requires less transportation fuel consumption. This also helps to control our air pollution.
Doughboy mandates that all employees recycle paper in an effort to save our trees.
Doughboy has partnered with King Technologies in an effort to offer not only an easier way to sanitize your pool, but to help reduce our carbon footprint. FROG products are made with recycled materials and packaging that is accepted at most community recycling facilities for disposal.

1&1 has partnered with the Bonneville Environmental Foundation (BEF) to offset 100% of the energy usage of our data center in Lenexa, Kansas by purchasing Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs). The majority of the RECs will be sourced from the Bowersock Mills and Power Company's hydroelectric facility in Lawrence, Kansas. This hydroelectric facility is certified low impact by the Low Impact Hydro Institute (LIHI).

1&1's renewable energy purchase for the facility is enough clean energy to power at least 300 U.S. homes for one year! 1&1 and BEF work in tandem with Green-e, the nation's leading voluntary certification program for renewable energy, to power our data center with clean, renewable energy. Green-e certifies renewable energy that meets environmental and consumer protection standards that it developed in conjunction with leading environmental, energy and policy organizations.

1&1 has also been recognized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a Green Power Partner for its annual purchase of 17.5 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of green power (electricity that is generated from environmentally preferable renewable resources, like wind, solar, hydroelectric and geothermal).
