We’re working toward better futures for the planet by recognizing our role in climate change and reducing our environmental impact, to help build a more sustainable and resilient world. We do this by making, sourcing and delivering products that help reduce our carbon footprint, designing for circularity, and choosing and using materials responsibly.
Since its introduction, Answer’s durable frame construction extended its useful life as it was reconfigured and reused. Today, Answer® is even more planet friendly: new engineered bulk packaging fits 100 screens in each pack (versus 48) and eliminates single-use foam, saving over 60,000 lbs. per year. Answer skins shipped in bulk cuts down on plastic packaging, reducing plastic film use by 95%. A new process to apply reclaimed paint to Answer junctions diverted 97,000 pounds of waste powder coat from landfills.
Answer panel systems has a third-party verified Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for complete lifecycle environmental impact transparency, has achieved BIFMA LEVEL® 3 certification, has a Red List Approved Declare label from the Living Building Challenge and indoor air quality (IAQ) certification through Scientific Certification Systems Indoor Advantage™ Gold.
