HOLLAND, Mich. – Trendway announced that its architectural products, Trendwall and Volo Wall, and systems products Capture, Choices, Instrinsic, Pack Storage and Desking and Trig, have earned Level 2 sustainability certification by the Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturers (BIFMA).   

“Successfully achieving the rigorous LEVEL 2 certification process exemplifies our continued commitment to providing customers with products that meet the most comprehensive, unbiased, and transparent environmental, social, and quality standards,” said Mark Rhoades, president, Trendway. The Holland, Mich.-based company was ranked #103 in the FDMC 300 list with approximately $80 million in sales.   

Earning the Level mark is a result of completing a voluntary sustainability certification program in which third-party auditors measure a product and its producer against e3 Furniture Sustainability Standards that include environmental, health and wellness, and social impacts. 

Developed by BIFMA with oversight by American National Standards Institute, the e3 Furniture Sustainability Standards measure attributes like materials, chemicals, manufacturing processes, the well-being of people, and organizational commitments.

The standard applies to all business and institutional furniture, including moveable walls, systems furniture, desking systems, case goods, tables, seating, and accessories. For more information about Level certification, visit www.levelcertified.org.
