Knu a new look at office furniture
Due to be launched in September of this year, the company is going to take the buying of furniture to a new level, their plans and ideas are as follows:
* knú sales will be Internet based and with no publishing of wasteful catalogs and mailings
* Recycled and re-used materials will be used whenever possible in shipping and manufacturing.
* None of their SCS certified veneers come from rainforest timber
* Hardware is constructed of 40% recycled steel and is fully recyclable
* Wood components are produced from Forest Stewardship Council certified multi-ply birch
* 90% of their product materials come from regional suppliers within a 50 mile radius of their plant
* They have installed energy efficient heating and lighting systems in their new manufacturing complex
* No contact adhesives are used in manufacturing
* All lamination is zero VOC
* Products are shipped UPS direct from the factory - not large national distribution centers
By registering now this will give you a 10% discount on any purchases that you make in the future, although if you pre order now, this will entitled you to 20% discount on the product and 50% discount on the shipping.

Actually, the company is named Industrial Woodworking Corporation - in Zeeland, Michigan - and the product line is called Knú, not Geknu. The website is http://www.getknu.com.
Thanks for noticing us!
