Sustainability

Innovative Business Interiors is proud to be a good steward of the environment. We are changing our everyday habits such as paper reduction, recycling, and cutting back on our electricity use to help the environment. We are also facilitating ways to help our clients initiate sustainable environments and partnering with like-minded manufacturers.

We can assist clients, and their teams fully understand how MillerKnoll products contribute to LEED credits while quickly providing the required documentation for LEED and other building certifications.

We are proud to associate with and represent some of the world's leading manufacturers of sustainable products, most notably Herman Miller, where designing products with consideration for their environmental impact is a central corporate strategy. With a legacy of environmental stewardship dating back to the 1950s, MillerKnoll's interest in the environment began with the strong convictions of its founder, D.J. De Pree, who pledged in 1953 that "Herman Miller will be a good corporate neighbor by being a good steward of the environment." As a founding member of the U.S. Green Building Council and an active participant in creating the LEED protocol, Herman Miller has helped carry the concept of environmental stewardship across industries and worldwide.

In 2004, MillerKnoll put into place a set of environmental goals that included a zero operational footprint. In the decade since, the company has sharpened its goals around the smart use of resources, eco-inspired design, and becoming community-driven. Its new 10-year sustainability strategy—Earthright—begins with three principles: positive transparency, products as living things, and becoming greener together.
