Our design and environmentally sound interest brings us to the forefront arena where we are on target to meet all of the strict CARB (California Air Resources Board) initiatives as of April of 2008, while being one of the sources for boutique and design-driven hospitality furnishings. The following are some of the benefits, when requested, that are being incorporated into the Kosta’s green movement furnishings, which in turn, do contribute to the General Green initiative allowing the projects to receive potential LEED points: • Cardboard for packaging 80% pre/post consumer recycled content. • Solid woods which can be certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) if required for certification. • MDF Boards without formaldehyde (NAF) and no VOC (volatile organic compound) base, Meeting the CARB. • All woods are sourced from rapidly renewable sources. • Packaging materials and all components to be made of natural biodegradable materials. Most sealers, stains, glues and paints are water based and environmentally friendly. We do thank the teams of designers, specifiers, purchasing companies, hotel owners and operators who have made Kosta their choice for fine furnishings and for allowing us to become one of the leading boutique and design-driven Hospitality furnishings manufacturers in the United States. k o s t a f u r n K i ho spi tal i ty desi gn s u m m i t 2009
