Our
World. Made Better.
At Young America we are addressing head-on the environmental challenges
that face our company, our industry and our planet. In the near
term our energies are being channeled specifically in three major
areas.
Green Is The Color of Choice
There’s more to
the safety story from Young America. Children typically spend
85 percent of their time indoors, where the air may be two-to-five
times more polluted than the outdoor air.
As a result, they face short and long-term health risks from the
indoor air pollution caused by chemicals released from the everyday
products in our homes, including other furnishings, electronics,
appliances and cleaners. To ensure the safest environments for
our children, all Young America cribs have been GREENGUARD Certified.
Products which receive the GREENGUARD Children and SchoolsSM certified
mark have been independently tested and meet the most rigorous
chemical emissions standards in the world.
Our company and its products are more environmentally conscious
and we are even more responsible. We continue to work to improve
the environment around our products, whether that means the town
where our furniture is made or a child’s room.
