Feeney Architectural Products Environmental Statement

• All or our architectural products are made from stainless steel and/or aluminum which are among the most recycled materials. Most of our products contain pre-consumer reclaimed content (LEED® points), and, upon disposal, the materials can be recycled at metal reclamation sites. Examples of Feeney products containing reclaimed content:
  
  
  • DesignRail® & CableTrellis aluminum extrusions—25% content
  • CableRail & CableTrellis stainless steel cables—70% content
  • CableRail & CableTrellis stainless steel cable fittings manufactured at Oakland plant—94% content.
  • StaLok® stainless steel rods machined at Oakland plant—94% content.
  
  
• Our products are durable and have long use cycles, thereby reducing replacement costs and maximizing material usage efficiency.

• Our products are very low maintenance and require no treatments, stains, solvents, varnishes or preservatives that may contain contaminating chemicals.

• Our materials and products are strong yet lightweight, using less raw material and allowing easier handling, lower shipping costs and less fuel consumption.

• Our CableTrellis kits, as well as CableRail cable assemblies, can be used to create energy saving trellis and landscape shading panels and partitions that support cooling foliage in the summer yet allow maximum sunlight and warmth during the dormant winter months.

• Our manufacturing facility in Oakland, CA utilizes a fully automated, computerized machining center that is programmed to continue running and producing high-precision parts after hours during non-peak electric usage periods and without the need of lighting or technicians.

• Our Oakland plant has over 1000 square feet of photovoltaic solar roof panels that produce as much as 11 kilowatts/hour of clean, sun-generated electricity.

• Our powder coating facility in Tekamah, NE features a new, state-of-the-art powder coating line that emits no V.O.C.s or heavy metal waste, uses a non-chromium pre-treatment wash, and reclaims 93% of the waste water via a reverse-osmosis membrane filtration system.
