Kent Moore Cabinets, the largest privately owned custom cabinet manufacturer in Texas, is proud to have earned brand certification in the Environmental Stewardship Program (ESP), sponsored by the Kitchen Cabinet Manufacturing Association (KCMA). Kent Moore Cabinets has a strong commitment to sound environmental management and sustainable practices, because "earth matters".
As an ESP certified company, Kent Moore Cabinets proudly showcases the green ESP seal on its products. As a member of a very elite group of manufacturers who have earned this prestigious designation, Kent Moore Cabinets is helping to set a high benchmark for measuring environmental practices within the industry, by exceeding more than the minimum standards necessary to gain certification.
The ESP program was initiated by KCMA to set a benchmark for environmental responsibility in cabinet manufacturing, in answer to a growing interest in the use of environmentally friendly products for new residential construction and remodeling. The program provides a tangible way for cabinet manufacturers to demonstrate a commitment to sustainability of natural resources and waste reduction. Certification is awarded based on criteria compliance in five categories,
- Air Quality: Demonstrated compliance with all local and federal hazardous air pollutants (HAPS) regulations and committed use of raw materials with a low formaldehyde content.
- Product Resource Management: Demonstrated use of recycled and sustainable products, including particleboard that meets specifications for recycled/recovered fiber content of 75% or greater.
