Corporate Sustainability
We make building green a little easier.
We're committed to being a sustainable business with transparent communications about our environmental practices. That's why we've worked tirelessly to attain Environmental Product Declarations for many of our products, why we utilize environmentally conscious aluminum vendors, and why our doors are made from some of the highest recycled content amounts without sacrificing quality or aesthetics.
Materials & Resources
Environmental Product Declarations
We are proud to announce that STANLEY Access Technologies is the first automatic door manufacturer to attain Environmental Product Declarations based on a North American Product Category Rule (PCR). Environmental Product Declarations are available for the following products and product lines:
Environmentally Conscious Vendors
Our aluminum vendors are ISO14001 and ISO50001 certified to control their energy usage and environmental impacts.
Recycled Content, Decreased Waste
A typical bi-parting slider can have on average 14.7% post-consumer and 22.1% and post-industrial recycled content. A typical bi-parting slider also uses about 55% less packing material than our competitors. We can do this because almost all of our doors are shipped on dedicated trucks, which ensures our products will arrive at the job site as intended—minimizing wasted time, energy, and resources caused by damaged products. What's more, at the end of the product life cycle, we can rebuild the controls and recycle the aluminum, completing the sustainability cycle.
Two Manufacturing Facilities
We feature two US manufacturing facilities in Indianapolis, IN, and Farmington, CT, to help minimize the carbon footprint of transporting materials to your project site as much as possible.
Energy & Atmosphere
Optimizing Building Energy Performance
Our Dura-Glide GreenStar minimizes air infiltration by up to 61% (for a typical 14' bi-part, 1500 cycles/day) and improves thermal performance with 1" insulated glass.
More Efficient Doors, Greener Buildings
Consider larger doors, 1" insulated glass, 4" bottom rail, narrow stiles, no muntins, and adding a transom. Tie to a third-party air curtain to block up to 80% of air infiltration.
Indoor Environmental Quality
Our doors are painted before shipping, arriving at the site pre-finished. Our finishers' processes eliminate the exhaust of potential pollutants so there are no VOCs or adverse environmental impact.
The Dura-Glide GreenStar features the GreenFit sealing system to minimize moisture and mold in the building.
Consider doors that maximize glass through the use of sidelights, transoms, narrow stiles, short bottom rails, and no muntins.
