The latest summary contains some innovative materials and a lot of great deals.  Here are a couple:

Reclaimed Herman Miller Aeron Chairs & Office Furniture
Downsizing of firms has caused a surplus in chairs, office furniture, lobby chairs, conference room tables, etc. Great-looking, like-new options at huge savings vs new.  We can help with layouts and coordination with your unique project and no project is too large or small.

Steel Reuse in May issue of Modern Steel Construction


Steel Reuse in New Commercial Construction?? Never seen it before? Don't think it's possible? You're going to see it more and more as designers look beyond the easy recycling option of structural steel.

In the May 2010 issue of Modern Steel Construction you can read "Reclaimed Structural Steel and LEED Credit MR 3 - Materials Reuse", a great progressive article by Erika Winters-Downey with the AISC. Erika examines associated costs, testing, carbon footprint information, and the open communication between the steel fabricator and the Engineer of Record. She also discusses how, "reclaiming and reusing steel products provides a strong environmental option not available with many other construction materials." Great research and data to support a change in thought that needs to happen more and more. PlanetReuse was happy to help with research and provide information to help push the reuse industry further forward with materials that are commonly overlooked.
