Stellcase office furniture recycling

Steelcase is working in collaboration with the Institution Recycling Network (IRN) in New England on a program to find ways of re utilising and recycling used office furniture. Most recently the two have worked together on a project at the University of Notre Dame and managed to re home 1600 items of office and classroom furniture resulting in a donation to victims of the hurricane in Haiti and Jamaica which cost the school less than if the furniture had been moved to landfill. The IRN is a cooperation that works with public and private organisations to improve the financial benefit and efficiencies in recycling.
