GreenSpot(TM) Opens as Leading Eco-Friendly Building and Living Materials Center
Innovative Supplier Helps Consumers and Building Professionals, Offers Tailored Product Lines and One-Stop Shop Experience
(CSRwire) CARBONDALE, Colo., May 1 /PRNewswire/ -- People want to go green and do it
simply. New figures by the Home Improvement Research Institute estimate
the green share of the home improvement market to reach $19.3 billion by
2011. There is no denying the growing desire to build and live in a manner
more harmonious with nature and respectful of the environment. Enter
GreenSpot(TM) (http://www.GreenSpot.com), one of the first companies to
supply the full gamut of solutions to take the most essential of spaces --
homes and businesses -- and transform them into environmentally friendly
dwellings.
GreenSpot is a full-spectrum green building and living materials
center, supplying everything needed to "green" a space inside and out.
Providing accessible and competitive sustainable living solutions,
GreenSpot's carefully selected products promote and advance environmental
responsibility by accounting for resource efficiency, quality and
healthfulness. A one-stop shop that's good for people and good for the
planet(TM) -- that's GreenSpot.
"GreenSpot takes everything you would find at your trade lumber yard
and everything you would find at your neighborhood hardware store,
combines these two components, and runs them in an environmentally
sophisticated manner," said GreenSpot CEO Christopher Jacobson. "Green
living is not a trend -- it's our mission, and we offer the greenest
solutions for every budget."
A source for both consumers and the building and design industries,
GreenSpot's services incorporate estimates, plan review, on-site delivery
and much more. The wide supply of in-stock, LEED-qualifying items includes
sustainably harvested (FSC) reclaimed and engineered lumber, zero VOC
paints, flooring and finish materials, a selection of tools, cleaning
solutions and household goods. In addition to exceptional customer
service, the GreenSpot team, comprised of skilled industry veterans,
provides valuable advice and technical knowledge. As one of the only FSC
Chain of Custody dealers in the area, GreenSpot had to pass stringent
reviews and regulations, ensuring its validity as a superior green product
dealer.
The growth of the green movement is astounding, and GreenSpot hopes to
propel this sector forward with its roster of sustainable living solutions.
Jacobson foresees company expansion into additional resort areas that
feature a high density of similarly minded consumers and builders. He
believes the magnitude of a GreenSpot chain will create the necessary
purchasing power and available inventory to permit green products greater
competitive use.
