CHANGE OF FOCUS – FRP RECLAIM

Making the world a better place with the use of reclaimed glass fibers.
Going Green has become a household name; pollution and depletion of raw materials has
reshaped the composite and other industries for ever. Taking an interest in the
environment contributes to healing years of damage and in turn can be used as a lucrative
selling point. There are plenty of economic incentives that go along with investing in
waste management.
Wolfgang Unger, Engineer and owner of Seawolf Design Inc., has been addressing the
challenges that face the composite and thermoset industries -- way before the spike in
petroleum prices. After 15 years of diligent research, he has proven that FRP
trimmings/scraps are a viable, lucrative and eco-friendly recyclates.
Mr. Unger has developed a “spray-up system” that allows a manufacturer, utilizing virgin
glass and resin, to reincorporate their scrap trimmings into their existing product. The
benefits of reusing old glass is that it adds additional strength to the given product;
superior to the strength of virgin glass. Reuse of old glass allows for an average 20% or
more reduction in raw virgin materials, waste and labor costs.
Making the world a better place is no mere task. The use of reclaimed fibers calls to the
most enduring concern of spa, automotive and other related companies -- waste
reduction. Any composite or thermoset related company can benefit from FRP scrap
waste management, even if they are not concerned with “tree hugging” but cutting cost or
eliminating heat from legislation. Focusing on achieving total elimination of glass fiber
waste is ideal but far from factual. We invite all that are willing to take the first step with
us to achieving and investing in that goal for the future.

Going Green With Your Flooring

More and more of our customers ask us every day what options that they have for "green" flooring products and obviously the need has arisen for a more proactive approach to our environment. With more information about harsh and harmful additives, by-products, and hazardous components present in various building materials and the impact that these substances have on Mother Earth and our health, "green" products are in very high demand these days. Not only is health consciousness an issue, but also the sustainability of the forests worldwide. We are all aware of the greenhouse effect warnings that appear in the news almost daily, so taking a few extra steps to do what we can every day to ensure that our planet and our homes are safe and habitable places becomes not only a prudent choice, but a social obligation.

We at Floormall.com wish to offer our customers the opportunity to be responsible and take advantage of some of our excellent "green Friendly" products. All of the products that you are about to see are VOCs compliantvolatile organic compounds), come from manufacturers that practice responsible harvesting practices, and/ or come from quick and easily renewable sources (like Bamboo and Cork). (meaning that they contain little or no

Did you know that Bamboo is a grass product that grows incredibly fast and is generally harvested in 3-7 years? What about Cork, which comes from the Cork Oak tree that is never actually cut down- they just peel the bark off every 8-14 years! These are just two of the products listed below that would be excellent environmentally safe choices for your upcoming project. Remember: It is the choices that we make today that will impact the world that we live in tomorrow!

Green Flooring Choices:

Bamboo: Bamboo is a grass product harvested in China and Southeast Asia. It grows extremely fast- regenerating without need for replanting or fertilizers!

Cork: Harvested predominantly in the Mediterranean region of the world, cork flooring is made from the compressed bark of the cork tree. No trees are cut down at all!

Lyptus: a flooring product that is a hybrid of two species of eucalyptus trees. The trees grow to full size in less than 25 years and are being used extensively in replanting the rain forests of South America.

The FSC:

The Forest Stewardship Council was created to change the dialogue about and the practice of sustainable forestry worldwide. FSC sets forth principles, criteria, and standards that span economic, social, and environmental concerns. The FSC is the leading agency in our industry that determines what is considered environmentally responsible. They are recognized by the World Wildlife Fund as the benchmark for forest management standards that have now been applied in over 57 countries around the world. The manufacturers that you see listed in this area of our website are all certified members of the FSC, practicing responsible harvesting, production, and distribution of wood products worldwide.

The TFF:

The Tropical Forest Foundation is a non-profit, educational institution dedicated to the conservation of tropical forests through sustainable forestry. TFF has become widely recognized for establishing demonstration models and training schools to show the advantages and teach the principles of sustainable forest management/Reduced-impact Logging.

The Foundation's Board of Directors includes representatives from industry, government, science, academia, and conservation. Each member has an interest in seeing tropical forests renewed and sustained.

10 Ways to Go Green and Save Green

How can we live lightly on the Earth and save money at the same time? In honor of Earth Day 2006, the Worldwatch Institute teams up with the Washington, D.C. members of SustainUS, the U.S. youth network for sustainable development, to share some ideas on how to go green and save green at home and at work.

This Earth Day, it’s time to take action.

And we really mean it. Study after study has confirmed that global warming is already occurring and that it is caused primarily by human activities. The only uncertainties are how soon and in what ways it will disrupt our existence. Stronger storms? Flooded coastlines? Harsher droughts? More disease? Not to mention that our waterways, food, and air are already polluted to unsound levels in many areas, affecting our health and quality of life every day.

But there is still time to act, and our great-great-grandchildren will thank us for living more sustainably, starting now. Fortunately, many of the steps we can take can actually make our lives better as well.

Below we offer a list of 10 things you can do today that will not only reduce your ecological footprint, but also save you money and help you live a happier, healthier life. (We call this a positive feedback loop.) Start with these, and after reading our Peak Oil forum, you can work on the rest.



  1. Re-route your commute.
    • Walk or bike to work and save money on gas and parking while improving your cardiovascular health and reducing your risk of obesity.
    • If you live far from your office, investigate the option of telecommuting. Or move closer—even if this means paying more rent, it could save you money in the long term.
    • If your streets are not conducive to biking or walking, lobby your municipal government to increase spending on sidewalks and bike lanes. With little cost, these improvements can pay huge dividends in decreased traffic and pollution.


  2. Buy used.
    • Whether you’ve just moved to a new area or are looking to redecorate, consider a service like craigslist or FreeSharing to track down furniture, appliances, and other items, rather than buying them new. Check out garage sales and thrift stores for clothing and other everyday items.
    • Use your creativity in gift giving, including making homemade gifts, donating to a good cause, or even regifting. (And gift green, in general.)
    • Your purchasing habits have a real impact, for better or worse. When making new purchases, make sure you know what’s “Good Stuff” and what isn’t.


  3. Buy local.
    • Shop at your local farmers’ market. Though the offerings can be more expensive, you can generally count on a higher quality product—and the entire purchase price goes directly to the farmer. Buying any goods produced locally saves energy by reducing the fossil fuels needed to transport food and other items across the country and around the globe.
    • Start a local currency program in your town. This can ensure that money stays in your local economy, valuing local services and supporting local merchants.


  4. Compost your food scraps.
    • Composting helps reduce the amount of waste you send to the landfill, which can save you money if you live in a municipality with a “pay as you throw” system. In the process, you create free, healthy fertilizer for your garden (or your neighbor’s—or lobby for a community garden!)
    • If you don’t have a yard or space for a compost pile, try indoor ‘vermiculture,’ or worm composting.


  5. Change the thermostat setting and install energy saving devices.
    • Setting your thermostat a few degrees lower in the winter and a few degrees higher in the summer can translate to substantial savings on your utility bills.
    • Install low-flow showerheads and take shorter showers to save water and the energy used to heat it. Or, consider eventually installing a solar hot water heater on your property.
    • Wash clothes in cold water whenever possible and use a drying rack or clothesline.
    • When incandescent bulbs burn out, replace them with longer-lasting, low-energy compact fluorescent bulbs.
    • With the money you save from making these changes, consider buying wind energy from your local utility or purchasing renewable energy offsets. Renewables offer our best hope for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, as well as a host of other pollutants. In some cases, “green energy” options can be cheaper than electricity from conventional sources!


  6. Skip the bottled water at the grocery or convenience store.
    • Filter your tap water for drinking rather than using bottled water. Not only is bottled water expensive, but it produces large amounts of container waste.
    • Check out this recent update and life cycle analysis for the latest on bottled water trends.


  7. Make your own cleaning supplies.
    • Using simple ingredients such as baking soda, soap, and vinegar, you can make cheap, easy, and non-toxic cleaning products that really work! Save money, time, and your indoor air quality.


  8. Think twice about new electronics.
    • E-waste from discarded cell phones and computers is a growing environmental problem. Mounds of electronic refuse are being shipped abroad illegally for ‘disassembly’ by workers with little protection against the mercury and other toxic substances they contain.
    • Keep your electronics as long as possible and dispose of them responsibly when the time comes.
    • Buy higher-quality items and don’t give in to ‘psychological obsolescence’ marketing campaigns.
    • Recycle your cell phone and support good causes at the same time!
    • Ask your local government to set up a responsible recycling and hazardous waste collection event.


  9. Add one meatless meal per week.
    • While strict vegetarianism isn’t for everyone, even the most devout carnivores can cut back on meat consumption without cramping their style—and save money in the process. Industrial meat productionbillions. requires huge energy inputs and creates noxious waste problems. The proliferation of factory farms is damaging the environment, and the global nature of the industry creates conditions that promote the spread of diseases such as avian flu, potentially costing society


  10. Use your local library and other public amenities.
    • Borrowing from libraries, instead of buying personal books and movies, saves money and printing resources. Consider donating the money saved to your local library.
    • Be an active civic participant and ensure that the public spaces and facilities in your town are well maintained. This will promote a healthy, sustainable community.


  11. Bonus Action Item! Support the Worldwatch Institute and make a long-term investment in the transition to a more sustainable and socially just society.
