Compared to conventional technologies, Cree LED Lighting products can deliver the same amount of light using as little as 10 to 15% of the power. This huge reduction in energy consumption can enable consumers to save hundreds of dollars over the life of each light.

A Cree LED Lighting product, like the CR6 downlight, can replace a 65 watt light while using only 10.5 watts. In its 50,000 hour lifetime it will consume about 525 kilowatts, costing about $63. During that time, it will never need to be replaced.

A typical 65 watt light lasts for 2,000 hours. To match the light output and longevity of a Cree LED Lighting downlight, traditional lighting would consume 3250 kilowatts, and need to be replaced about 25 times, costing over $465.

Tools to make working with our products easy!

USFloors is committed to sourcing and utilizing sustainable resources for its flooring products whenever possible.

Cork and bamboo comprise about 80% of USFloors’ product portfolio and are two of the most sustainable and renewable resources in the flooring industry today.

USFloors received FSC-Chain of Custody Certification in 2008 and has begun producing FSC certified domestic hardwood floors sourced through sound forestry practices.

In addition USFloors specifies proprietary Moso6® Premium Mature 6 Year Moso Bamboo for it’s Natural Bamboo floors. As the bamboo stalk matures, it becomes more dense and the hardness increases exponentially with each passing year.

Creating better indoor air quality:
USFloors Natural Bamboo and Natural Cork satisfy LEED credits for Indoor Air Quality AND meet the European E0 Standard., a strict test that measures the amount of formaldehyde in a product. Formaldehyde is found in the glues and adhesives used to make bamboo and cork floors, but USFloors specifies low formladehyde content in all of its Natural Bamboo and Natural Cork floors to exceed health standards established in the United States, Europe, and Japan. 100% formaldehyde-free products are our ultimate goal. In addition, HDF core boards used for our floors have no added formaldehyde.

As you plan your project, whether it is a brand new floor being laid in a new home, or the salvaging and refinishing of a family heirloom chair, put PolyWhey® into your plans to provide safe, long-lasting protection that will flatter your wood and take advantage of a recycled resource.

Whey protein eliminates the need for heavy metal driers and displaces both the toxic co-binders and carcinogenic solvents typically found in wood finish. Whey is a natural byproduct of cheese-making. Excess whey can end up on fields and in streams.
