Recycled Office Furniture - Used, Pre-owned,

Recycled Office Furniture
Good for the Environment, Good for Your Business
Recycling paper, glass, aluminum cans and other everyday products is now standard practice in homes and offices across America. But many consumers are unaware that office furniture is also a recyclable product. Think about it. The basic structure of most office furniture has a long life span. Instead of wearing out, it is often replaced because it has been depreciated completely and/or fabric colors and other elements are outdated over time. In the past, an office face-lift or a new color scheme meant old furnishings were given a life sentence in storage or doomed to the dumpster. Not any more.

Today, Systems News and our members, supply high quality pre-owned office furniture to the marketplace. This process diverts some of the pre-owned office furniture out of the solid waste stream and back into the consumer market. Furniture destined for the dump is instead looking great and functioning “like new” again. Not only does quality pre-owned furniture look and perform similar to new furniture, there is an average savings of 80% when compared with new. Systems News quality, pre-owned office furniture or their remanufactured office furniture offers an attractive alternative to purchasing new product. Whether you’re buying quality pre-owned or remanufactured office furniture, you can be assured of a quality product, a cost effective product and most importantly, an environmentally – conscience product. What’s good for the environment really is good for your business.
