Air Emissions
Improving air quality is very important to KI. Our products are designed to reduce off-gassing, protecting the users of our products. From an internal standpoint, we’ve made considerable progress in reducing the amount and toxicity of air emissions in each of our manufacturing facilities. The positive results include the following:
- Improved work environments
- Improved regional air quality in the areas where furniture is manufactured
- Reduced potential for off-gassing and indoor air quality issues associated with the use of the final product lines
- Reduced hazardous and toxic wastes generated at the manufacturing facilities, since solvent-based (i.e. volatile) materials commonly produce hazardous waste
- Reduced manpower required to track air emissions permitting, record keeping and monitoring facilities
