The City of Newberg had a vision when they came to Absolute Office of Oregon http://www.absoluteofficeoforegon.com/ to look at Baltix which is our line of Sustainable Furniture. It's was great to work with them and their support to become more sustainable. Our first project is with the City of Newberg Public Works Director, Howard Hamilton. Howard was great to work with on this project. He want to use sustainable product like, Forbo surface material, Bio Edge, and Sierra Pine Arreis for all the other material for his office. Arries is a sustainable medium density fiberboard manufactured from 100% post-industrial recycled wood residuals.

What is used furniture?
As a consumer, you have several options available to you when selecting office furniture. Here's a brief description of the different types of products on the market:
Recycled Office Furniture Recycled office furniture is a term often used for any post-consumer office furniture that has been diverted out of the solid waste stream and back into the market with or without repairs. This includes refurbished, and re-used (as-is/used) office furniture, both of which are being “used again.”
Refurbished Office Furniture is recycled office furniture that has had value added to the product. Products are disassembled, parts are inspected, cleaned, repaired or replaced, reassembled and refinished to “like new” conditions, and returned to the market for sale. Contact us for details: john@absoluteofficeoforegon.com
Reused Office Furniture, “used,” or “as-is” office furniture is recycled office furniture that has been returned to the market for sale without repair or improvement to its appearance.
New Office Furniture New office furniture is new furniture purchased from the original equipment man-ufacturer (OEM) for resale by your company. It is composed entirely of OEM parts. The parts are made mostly of raw materials (natural resources) that have not been used before although some manufacturers' components may have recycled content.
