Reduce Landfill Waste with Commercial Pool Furniture

If you’re in the market for outdoor pool furniture and are conscious of conserving the environment, consider commercial pool furniture. Commercial-grade outdoor pool furniture is a more environmentally friendly solution than lower-cost consumer-grade furniture because it offers better quality, provides long-lasting support, and guarantees years of use. 

 

Across the country and the world, trash is becoming an increasing problem. As more waste is being generated, much of it is improperly disposed of and even less is recycled. In the U.S. alone, only about 5% of the waste plastic was recycled in 2019, while 86% was left in landfills. The remainder was burned to generate electricity. Estimates from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency put the current amount of plastic waste in the U.S. between 32 million and 44 million metric tons. 

 

While we can’t solve our landfill waste problem single-handedly, we can still make an impact. By doing research and making more informed choices, we can create less trash and lessen our carbon footprint. 

 

Commercial pool furniture – a more environmentally friendly choice

Reduce, reuse and recycle is a great mantra to practice in both our personal and professional lives. Better quality products last longer, which saves money and creates less waste – and commercial pool furniture is no exception. Economy furniture from big online retailers doesn’t hold a candle to commercial-grade furniture:
