Located
in the Pacific Northwest, Pedigo Products is conscious of our
environmental footprint and active in minimizing our impact on the
planet. Our company wide commitment ranges from product manufacturing
practices, to physical plant construction, to paper recycling at our
desks.

Packing Materials
The majority of Pedigo products
are shipped using cardboard containers and inserts. The corrugated
material we purchase is comprised on average of 39% post consumer
recycled fiber. Wood pallets, returned packaging and miscellaneous
dunnage are also recycled. We do not use
styrene fillers such as pellets in our shipping. |

Manufacturing Practices
All Pedigo products are
manufactured in the United States. In doing so, we are able to properly
dispose of any waste fluids. Oils and coolants used here at our plant
are reclaimed and recycled.
Our investment in laser cutter
technology allows for the maximization of each stainless steel sheet
used in production. Even though 100% of the remnant steel is recycled,
this cutter greatly reduces the amount of scrap sent to the smelter.

Printing
Pedigo’s catalog is printed
using vegetable-based inks, FSC certified mixed source paper and 100%
clean wind power. We partner with printers that use renewable clean wind
power to operate their presses. This electricity has been generated and
purchased solely from the windmill grid. |

Plant Construction
Our manufacturing
facility as well as office space have been outfitted with skylights and
energy efficient light fixtures. Even in the cloudy Pacific Northwest
the addition of skylights helps to reduce the amount of electricity
needed to illuminate the working space. |
