Greener Every Day!
Saturday, April 18th, 2009
Jack’s Stove Shop in Black Mountain, North Carolina strives to conduct business with as little environmental impact as possible.This commitment goes beyond our modest opperation in Black Mountain. We invest the time and resources necessary to educate consumers on how to buy and use the products we sell most efficiently and with the least amount of pollution.
Here are just a few of the ways Jack’s Stove Shop is getting greener every day;
- When choosing our suppliers we look for those that are investing in making their opperation environment-friendly.
- We recycle our waste which includes old stoves and fireplaces that were not E.P.A. certified – keeping them out of the landfill.
- All of our printing and marketing materials are printed on recycled paper stock with special soy and vegetable inks with water-based coatings.
- For every stove we sell (regardless of fuel) we plant 10 trees in our National Forests. That translates to almost 2,000 trees in a typical year!
- We even specially tune our vehicles to be cleaner and more efficient than designed – capable of utilizing clean, ethanol or bio-diesel fuels.
- For lighting we use low-mercury flourescent bulbs and L.E.D. lighting wherever possible.
