Earth day was yesterday and it got me thinking about our environment. We hear so much in our industry about recycling materials when remodeling and using products made from recycled products. But there is little talk about products that last a long time. In other words for the past many years we have become a throw away society. We own 5 sweaters when we can only wear one at a time. We use a product for a while, even if it is made of recycled materials, shortly tire of it and the item winds up in the dumpster when our tastes change.
When I designed our Convert>able Bath Accessory Collection I thought the idea of being able to change the towel bar to suit the tastes of individual customers was a good idea. Frankly the design had a great unintended consequence; you never need to tire of this patented collection. When your style changes, with the addition of a knob or two the bath accessories can change with you. The towel bar for the kid’s bathroom later can move to the laundry room, or pool house or even the kitchen.
Another unintended consequence is the ease of installation. Many towel bars wiggle and the cover plates fall off the wall. We call our handyman over and over again to fix them. But our patented design eliminates this problem all together. Your handyman need only visit your job one time. Once installed these bath accessories never move and your handyman does not need to return to the job over and over again.
So my conclusion, if we think of green also as efficiency namely our use of time gas and expense…a well designed product can be installed easily and efficiently, eliminating return trips and lasts through many changes in home decor.
Now that’s green and that’s Nifty!
