MONROE, WA – Canyon Creek Cabinet Company was recently presented with an Association of Washington Business (AWB) Environmental Excellence Award, in the category of Leading Environmental Practices. AWB’s annual Environmental Excellence Awards recognize member companies of all sizes and types across the state for their initiative, innovation and outstanding achievements in environmental compliance, protection and conservation.

Canyon Creek has a history of finding creative ways to reduce energy and materials consumption, even converting its own material waste into products other companies can use. Its wood wastes, such as sawdust and shavings, are collected and recycled/repurposed by other companies as are the solvents and acetones used in its finishing process.

The company has an ongoing lean process improvement program and has won many industry awards for its cabinetry and environmental practices. Canyon Creek has been awarded the EPA’s Evergreen Award for Environmental Excellence and is a two-time winner of the Governor’s Award for Outstanding Pollution Prevention.
