The company said this latest action incorporates renewable raw materials into polyurethane foam. Already Greenguard certified, Chromcraft's Mississippi facility further demonstrates its dedication to environmental efforts by enlisting MCPU Polymer Engineering to "green up" seating foam with soy-based Honey Bee polyol.
The new foam cushions comply with rigorous physical test standards demanded for residential and commercial seating applications and prove it is possible to produce environmentally friendly foam without sacrificing critical performance attributes. This single act of replacing a portion of petroleum-derived chemical with Honey Bee polyol allows Chromcraft to expand environmental efforts on many levels. MCPU's proprietary technology takes soybean oil to polyol in one clean, efficient step, saving energy and reducing the greenhouse effect. The end product is a consistent soy-polyol that works well with conventional urethane materials to produce high quality foams. The polyol contributes to Presidential initiatives for U.S. production and the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009; its use also enables Chromcraft to make a positive impact on U.S. farming initiatives.
Chromcraft's new soy-foam seating offers ergonomic comfort, Chromcraft quality and makes an environmental statement as encouraged by Leeds and Greenguard standards. Both Chromcraft and MCPU Polymer Engineering will continue efforts to replace non-sustainable content with more renewable materials in the future.
Chromcraft's eco-improved seating will be available for purchase in the fourth quarter of this year.
