Input: Aluminum, steel and corrugated are our major material components. 25% of our Aluminum currently comes from recycled billet, and will increase as more becomes available. Steel recycled content currently averages 58%. Corrugated medium and liner board (boxes) currently average 70% recycled content. Where: As a U.S. manufacturer, US Visual utilizes local suppliers reducing transportation impact. The carbon footprint of a Toyota Prius built in Asia is greater than a Chevrolet Suburban.

Design: Many of our designs are telescopic, facilitating less packaging and transportation. Process: 88% of our scrap metals are recycled. 60% of our corrugated waste is converted into usable packaging. We will recycle our brand aluminum products if returned to us by customers.

Quality: Our products have always been known for extraordinary reliability and therefore have longer lives than our competitors’ products. If our products last longer, the carbon footprint is therefore less. Product life impacts the environment more than any other factor.
