Solar powered operations: Our Austin facilities produce over a megawatt of electricity through roof-mounted solar panels on three large warehouses

Bamboo Desktops, Drawers, & Motion Boards: The world's fastest-growing plant, Moso bamboo is a grass that grows as quickly as an inch an hour
Eco Curve Desktops: Eco Curve desktops use 100% recycled MDF and have the lowest carbon footprint in the industry due to not using edgebanding, backer boards, adhesives, or solvents
