By Home Furnishings Business in on May 2008 In response to the growing need for accountability in the home furnishings industry, Groovystuff, a Dallas, Texas-based vendor of furniture in reclaimed teakwood, has embarked on the Sustainable by Design and EFEC (Enhancing Furniture’s Environmental Culture) initiatives of the American Home Furnishings Alliance (AHFA).

The Sustainable by Design program is intended to facilitate the core concepts of continuous improvement and environmental stewardship by implementing sustainable business practices. It guides companies through measurable steps to reduce their environmental footprint at the manufacturing level and throughout their entire supply chain.

The EFEC Program by the AHFA is designed to help its members develop and maintain strong, proactive environmental programs. EFEC provides a systematic approach for reviewing and improving a company’s operations for better environmental performance and improved profitability.

Groovystuff is celebrating 10 years in business in 2008.
