Our Green Initiative
We believe being environmentally responsible is a benefit for all.
Here are some of the things we've done:
- Our facility uses natural light to illuminate our work areas
- Our manufacturing floor is heated hydronically with efficient on-demand systems
- We use natural ventilation and ceiling fans to control temperature in our office, manufacturing, and shipping areas
- Most of our office space and showroom heating is provided by our efficient gas direct-vent fireplaces
- Our final process and shipping areas are heated during the winter months by on demand gas heat effectively reducing carbon emissions by 80% from typical applications
- Our dark-colored metal building, low demand landscaping, and recycled parking lot material show our respect for proper use of materials and natural resources and we encourage others to do the same when possible
- In our processes, we incorporate low waste, kanban, lean manufacturing, low VOC finishes and cleaning products
- Our woodburning fireplaces use an air invigorator slot that burns the fire cleaner and minimizes particulates common in startup and burn down of wood fireplaces making for a much cleaner environment
- We utilize open-air storage for some of our products
- We will continue to make changes for the better to improve our processes, products, and facility
Ironhaus, Inc. is located in the beautiful Rocky Mountains of Montana. The names of our products show our appreciation for the great outdoors, especially here in "The Last Best Place" (© The Great State of Montana). We take ownership of our small part in keeping Montana Green.
