Green Furniture Using 98% Recycled Steel
It is not wrong to want nice things for your home or office. And of course at Thingz we believe that a beautiful, well decorated home is an essential right! But in today’s environment, it is certainly considered environmentally conscientious to be aware of how something was made, of what it is made and where the materials originates before you acquire and enjoy it. After all, you wouldn’t want to be part of a system that includes things such as child labor, deforestation, and illegal mining … right?
We have spent a lot of our time finding products that are environmental friendly. From LED light fixturesthat use less than 10% of the electricity of a typical light to sourcing furniture locally to avoid the long and environmentally unfriendly shipping cycles, we are vigilant. We do this because it’s good for the environment and good for business. At Thingz we are proud of our record on sustainability and will continue in this as a cornerstone of our contemporary interior design approach.
Definitely a brand with a conscience, Oios Metals is a revolutionary and green concept that anybody would be happy to use and endorse. True to their name of Oios, which is Greek for “unique”, Oios Metals products are all “Sustainable Design”. They are the first name in Eco friendly commercial and residential furnishing with all of them made of 98% recycled material. They are durable and excellently crafted, but should they ever get damaged, they can also be recycled into reusable metal. If you would like to know about their carbon footprint, rest assured that Oios Metals products are 100% USA made. The company’s practices are laudable in their commitment to be as environment-friendly as possible. Everything in its operation is in strict adherence to this commitment. Packaging is done with recycled boxing; orders are consolidated for low fuel usage in shipping; scraps are recycled back to local material suppliers; and the only wood products used come from recycled crates and pallets for shipping. Despite these commendable practices, Oios Metals continues to strive to be even greener. Its goals include tapping renewable energy sources such solar panels and wind turbines.
Do not even for one minute think that Oios Metals products are all about functionality and being green. They are all attractively designed with edgy patterns and the most fashion forward shapes. For instance, you would think that metal tables cannot be much more than utilitarian, but behold the following beauties and you will see that nothing could be farther from the truth. Any of the following would be a gorgeous focal point and make a fashionable statement for your room.
The Apostrophe Desk is uniquely shaped. It is eye-catching in its design, yet its curves and components are created to be very ergonomic. This is a very inspiring desk to have in one’s office.
The Carusso Dining Table is another unique product with its striking beauty. Shaped with simple and clean lines, the table makes up for the traditional form with its distinctive pattern.
The Boomerang End Table, on the other hand, makes an enchanting focal point. There is no doubt about its functionality as it is sure to serve its purpose well. Its design, however, is truly remarkable. Another unique product from Oios Metals, this end table makes a very engaging conversation piece.
Our steel tables are — in addition to being stylish and environmentally sensitive — fully customizable. We have created custom conference room tables, kitchent tables, metal contemporary bars, and metal counter tops. In fact, visit the Thingz Tempe showroom. The front counter is made of a custom countertop that is 18 feet long and completely unsupported in the middle. As with all of our products, this line of metal contemporary furniture is sturdy, stylish and customizable!
