Furniture Designs and Manufacturing Built on a Decade of Green Initiatives
At Salamander Designs, sustainability is in our DNA. We design, manufacture and ship with a keen eye on exceptional products and performance, but also on the environment. And it’s not new for us. We have been doing this over a decade.
When you buy Salamander technology furniture, rest assured you are buying beautiful, functional products, but also minimizing the impact on the planet. From our 100% solar-powered manufacturing facility to our advanced, environmentally friendly finishes, to achieving the latest compliances, Salamander is steadfast in our environmental goals. Let’s stay on top of sustainability together.
Materials and Suppliers Matter. We Choose Carefully.
All our fine furniture products are handcrafted using sustainable materials that last a lifetime and make a pathway for the future. Just some of our eco-friendly goods include:
Woods harvested from managed forestry programs and composite materials comply with rigorous certification standards.
Furniture frames made from energy-efficient recycled aluminum.
We’ve partnered with pioneers of the wood finishing industry, so our wood coating technologies include powder coat finishes and UV coatings on components.
Advanced, environmentally friendly finishes and coatings meet or exceed stringent air quality standards.
Our 100% Solar Powered Process
Salamander is always going green and off the grid. We’ve implemented a plan that has taken us off the grid with Solar (photovoltaic) power generating, making a significant differen
ce. Over the course of one year, our net energy consumption is zero. In that year, we produce enough energy from our solar panels that we consume

“We build every product to last a lifetime and not end up in a landfill. We tread lightly on our environment, from the materials we select, to the manufacturing process we employ, to our factory that runs completely on solar-generated power. We’ll continue to take bold steps, to leave the world a better place.”
– Salvatore Carrabba, President + Founder
Timeless Design, Built to Last
We build every product to last a lifetime and not end up in a landfill. We use premium, durable materials so that our products can last for years and years, and expand over time.
Taking Action Through Compliance
What do our compliances mean? The standards we’ve achieved include RoHS and CARB – just to name a few.
RoHS Compliant: A product compliance based on the European Union’s Directive 2002/95/EC, which restricts use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment.
CARB Compliant: Produces less harmful emissions, toxins, and particulates while resulting in cleaner and safer air quality.
