The Green Seal Choice

The Perfect Choice for Environmentally Conscious Consumers

The true test of a company’s integrity today is how environmentally conscious they operate. With many companies looking to maximize their bottom line, it is refreshing to see companies like Clark Adams Co. Windows and Doors who put the environment up at the top of their list. Adams chose to sell the Renewal by Andersen® replacement window line after he learned about their Green Seal Certification. According to Adams, “ Choosing the Renewal by Andersen window line was a no-brainer. Everyone knows that they make a superior product and have a 100-year-old company behind them. So it didn’t surprise me that this is the only replacement window product that carries the green seal certification. What could be more perfect for our environmentally conscious Californians who also demand a great looking window product?”

The Renewal by Andersen line was awarded the Green Seal Certification for many reasons. All of the wood fibers used in the compounding process, as well as some of the thermoplastic polymer are reclaimed directly from the 65-acre Andersen Corporation manufacturing plant operations in Bayport Minnesota. In addition to the manufacturing benefits of the Renewal product, the use of their patented Fibrex material is an excellent insulator preventing heat or cold transfer into or out of your home to maximize energy efficiency.

As a consumer, you have the right to research and get a clear understanding of how your purchase of items can affect the environment. One way to determine if a product is environmentally responsible is to look to see if the product you are buying is Green Seal Certified. The Green Seal organization is an independent non-profit dedicated to safeguarding the environment and transforming the marketplace by promoting the manufacture, purchase and use of environmentally responsible products and services. The Green Seal mission is to achieve a more sustainable world by promoting environmentally responsible production, purchasing and products.

Green Seal certification ensures that a product meets rigorous science-based environmental leadership standards. This gives manufacturers the assurance to back up their claims and purchasers confidence that certified products are better for human health and the environment.
