Innovation Leader in PVC Trim Cetegory maps their environmental strategy, helps to define important terms and dispel myths about vinyl building materials.While many companies have only recently implemented environmentally responsible strategies, VERSATEX has reclaimed, reused and recycled in every corner of its Pittsburgh, PA operation since its inception in 2003. The company’s mission is one of conscientious citizenship and constructive action in support of civic and environmental progress. VERSATEX’s management decided it was time to spell out its policies, stances and outlooks for the industry in their new website versatex.com/green.
“We have a powerful story about the conscientious manner in which we manufacture and distribute—even down to environmentally responsible methods we recommend to finish our products and recycle the left-over scraps,” says Rick Kapres, VP of Sales and Marketing. “It is a practice we have lived since day-one.”
“We are committed to converting the company and the products we manufacture from ‘brown’ to ‘green’,” says John Pace, president and technical spokesperson for VERSATEX Trimboards. “Our goal is to develop innovative and practical solutions to reduce the environmental impact of our plant and products, while maximizing our recycling and conservation efforts.”
