Going Green Can Save Green: Environmentally Friendly ULoft Student Furniture Proves to be a Great Value

January 18, 2012 ULC Blog Team Environment, Green Initiatives, Quality, University Furniture

Green is good, right? Sure it sounds good and feels good to buy environmentally friendly, or “green,” products.

December 22, 2011 Bob Environment, Green Initiatives, University Furniture

As I write this post, we’re hurtling headlong into the holiday season, which brings the inevitable Christmas tree debate: Which is better, real or fake?
