Modern Recycling - The Art of Recycling: modern recycling receptacles and product made with recycled materials

The Art of Recycling

Recycling is Mainstream America and DeepStream’s modern combination, or stand alone, recycling receptacles make it more accessible.

Example of DeepStream's modern combination Trash Bin and Recycling receptacle with 3form Bear Grass panels — DeepStream Design’s Modern Audubon commercial combination, Trash and Recycling Receptacle with 3form Bear Grass Panels provide both form and function.

Studies show that Americans are very aware that recycling is the right thing to do. Americans of every age and background wish to participate and do their part.

Businesses and products that support recycling with modern recycling receptacles generate positive brand recognition with both current and potential customers.

Modern Recycling Bins help position your business and separate it from your competitors. In the fiercely competitive marketing wars for the share of customers’ mind, successful brand owners know that no positive aspect of brand awareness or affiliation can be overlooked, lest their brand be at a competitive disadvantage.

The easier you can make it for people to recycle or dispose of trash appropriately, the more often people will do so. Making it easier for people to dispose of waste appropriately boils down to offering more opportunities. DeepStream’s infinite variety of attractive modern recycling bins and trash receptacles make it beautiful and easy to add more opportunities for your customers or visitors to do the right thing by recycling.

Florida’s newest and most modern airport will also be its most bold and dynamic in the spirit of Orlando, home to world class theme parks. Modern trash and recycling receptacles by DeepStream have been chosen for Orlando International Airport’s South Terminal Inter-Modal Transportation Hub.

Designers chose DeepStream’s modern combination recycling receptacle and trash bin with 3form Varia Thatch resin panels. 3form makes an almost unlimited pallet of textures, colors, and materials to combine into unique decorative panels that wipe clean. The Varia Thatch that designers chose uses natural thatch set into clear and colored resin panels.

From grand modern airports, 5 star hotels, convention centers, to boutique hotels DeepStream’s modern custom trash and recycling receptacles grace the halls.

Many companies have invested heavily in creating brand awareness, not only for their products, but also in their points of contact with customers. Businesses with large investments in bricks and mortar create brand awareness in their customers’ minds by creating strategic infrastructure that distinguishes them from their competition.

DeepStream’s attractive bins are not an expense. They are an investment in brand image that is underwritten by a reduction in your maintenance budget. A Lifetime Structural Warranty means lower physical depreciation and lower long term capital costs.

Given the industrial and mass-produced look of many recycling bins, it is not surprising that many businesses are reluctant to add prominent points of disposal, because these choices may actually detract from their carefully orchestrated image. DeepStream’s modern receptacles set your brand apart.

Example of a DeepStream triple stream commercial wooden Modern Recycling Bin in an office lobby — DeepStream triple stream commercial wooden Modern Recycling Bin

DeepStream realizes that it only looks as good as its products do on a customer’s property. Partnering with its customers, DeepStream handcrafts its receptacles with the exact finish that its customers are looking for. DeepStream also uses sustainable design principles when creating its products to minimize maintenance and uses parts that are easily replaceable and recyclable.

Example of a DeepStream Modern combination Recycling Receptacle and Trash Bin in a boutique hotel lobby — Modern designer commercial wooden Recycling Bin

The “Core Replacement Program,” unique to DeepStream, helps customer maintain the fresh look of these high-volume points of customer contact. This program makes replacement parts available at direct manufacturer’s cost so that its products never need to be replaced. If the look of the company’s brand or property changes, the look of the bins can easily be changed to support the new marketing direction, and at a fraction of the replacement cost.

DeepStream’s cylindrical bin design of the changeable skin Chameleon and rugged Nautique uses the same design principles as the Audubon, OPUS, and Oahu recyclers and trash bins, but in a round form. Various graphics can be affixed to an inner graphics shell to give your bins a custom look at an affordable price. You can easily update the look with new graphics at any time for a very low cost

Recycled plastic lumber (RPL) makes these receptacles environmentally friendly. They are weatherproof, require no maintenance, and do not require cutting down the rainforest.

Because DeepStream uses it’s trademark marine anodized extrusion they may be pressure cleaned as there is no paint or powder coating to fail. Maintenance free, and backed by a 50 year warranty by the manufacturer, RPL is an excellent choice. RPL receptacles deliver the lowest cost of ownership over time.

Oahu Modern RPL Wood Combination Trash and Recycling Bin

In 2009, DeepStream started offering recycled plastic lumber (RPL) as an alternative to tropical hardwoods. More and more of our customers have been choosing RPL for planters and weatherproof fixtures over the past several years. In 2017, RPL was specified more often than natural wood.

chart showing the use of recycled plastic lumber replacing natural wood — The use of recycled plastic lumber has overtaken tropical hardwood

Recycled plastic lumber is a win for the environment and for our customers.

Weatherproof RPL reduces maintenance costs while enhancing your properties and brands, exhibiting timeless beauty and making an environmental statement.

We strongly encourage you to seriously consider the cost benefits and the long-term appearance of RPL versus tropical hardwood. The environmental statement made by selecting this material for your project is a positive one for your customers.

Before specifying tropical hardwood for your projects please look at the comprehensive worldwide overview of the problem created by using tropical information presented at this link:

https://news.mongabay.com/2019/12/2019-the-year-rainforests-burned/

Eliminate needless rainforest destruction by specifying DeepStream RPL planters and fixtures. The RPL DeepStream uses is backed by a 50-year limited warranty by its manufacturer.

DeepStream was created in a response to a need. While building a condominium project, I reviewed the “universe” of garden planters and receptacles. I wanted planters, receptacles, and custom fixtures for my project that were just not available.

Wood planters were carpenter-built with wood-on-wood construction. As I’ve detailed in my Planter Blog, they just don’t last. Carpenter-built wood planters tear themselves apart in 3-4 years in Miami’s hot tropical climate.

Wasting valuable wood harvested from the world’s rapidly diminishing rainforests also wastes your time, money, and energy. Recycled plastic lumber was not an option at that time.

Recycled Plastic Lumber wood planters add a tranquil green space on a roof deck between apartment blocks. — Recycled Plastic Lumber wood planters add a tranquil green space on a roof deck between apartment blocks

If your project absolutely must use tropical hardwood, then specify our Mariner planter system, do not use carpenter built wood planters that will fall apart in 3-5 years.

Wood expands when it gets wet. DeepStream’s trademark marine-anodized aluminum extrusion, along with its hidden aircraft aluminum structural frame, contains wood’s expansionary forces. Honor the wood you use by ensuring it lasts for decades and back it with a Lifetime Structural Warranty.

DeepStream Designs’ trademark marine-anodized aluminum leg extrusion is engineered to contain the tremendous forces of wood as it expands and contracts through numerous wet and dry cycles. Our planters will last for decades instead of tearing themselves apart in just a few years as traditional carpenter-built planters will. They are also equally suited to provide the framework required by non-structural recycled plastic lumber as an environmentally responsible substitute.

Engineered with the principles of Sustainable Design, our products stand the test of time. Our engineered modular system uses, or reuses, hardwood in a design that honors the wood. Deepstream’s trademark aluminum extrusions allow construction that extends wood life by decades. This is true with all of DeepStream’s products.

Harvesting tropical hardwood destroys important habitats around the world, even if “sustainably harvested,” as hardwood trees take 50 years or more to reach maturity.

According to the Yale School of Forestry, while estimates vary, it is thought that between 30 and 50% of all certified Tropical Hardwood shipped into the United States has been “Greenwashed,” meaning that shipments have been provided with falsified and counterfeit documentation.

In some countries like Peru, it’s estimated that 90% are illegally logged, devastating their Amazon watershed. For more information click here: “Greenwashed” Timber and FSC certification.

Offset your project’s carbon footprint by using recycled plastic lumber and planting far more trees than you use.

We plant trees for you automatically through Trees for the Future as a matter of principle. Planting trees through Trees for the Future provides families with more than just trees and food. It provides income, empowerment, unity, leadership, education, and even saves lives. The program teaches people to value themselves and their environment, and they see amazing improvements in their standard of living.

To date, with proceeds from the sale of our products, DeepStream has planted more than 460,000 trees in our customers’ honor. This reflects our customers’ commitment to the environment that we are all leaving for future generations.

DeepStream makes it easy and cost-effective to go Green and stop contributing to climate change. By selecting recycled plastic lumber for your order, you will be preserving the world’s rainforests, the cooling lungs of the earth, while creating a sustainable market for post-consumer and post-industrial plastic waste.

Products made with non-structural Recycled Plastic Lumber planks (RPL) inside DeepStream’s unique structural aluminum frame are a perfect choice for outdoor placement, while making a strong environmental statement.

Please discuss saving this diminishing resources for future generations with clients that specify tropical hardwoods.

Our recycled plastic lumber requires no maintenance and lasts for decades without fading, saving your clients money, while looking better over time than wood ever will.

DeepStream creates many custom fixtures that use recycled plastic lumber.

Custom Fixtures, not custom prices, for hotels, restaurants, theme parks, water parks and spas. DeepStream’s proprietary frame system allows us to create a coordinated collection of durable custom fixtures. This approach provides visual continuity throughout your property, indoors or out.

Custom fixtures shown above include a point-of-sale enclosure with marine-anodized aluminum tambour door and frame. It features an insulated 316 stainless steel top, hinges, drawer slides, and handle.

The modern combination trash and recycling receptacles are also constructed with recycled plastic panels. Easily wiped clean, RPL does not stain and can be pressure cleaned – perfect for food service outlets. Because DeepStream’s trademark aluminum extrusions are marine-anodized, there is no paint or powder coating to fail. Turning on silent Delrin bushings, the bin push flaps are constructed of unfinished 5086 marine aluminum, making them easily cleaned and refinished.

Waterparks use a lot of towels. One of the RPL cabinets in the center holds fresh towels. The other cabinet houses a roll-in towel return cart.

Wood garden planters with privacy screen create a modern urban rooftop patio

DeepStream’s large modular wood garden planters anchor privacy screen walls, eliminating costly and problematic penetrations of the existing waterproof roof membrane. Now with the pandemic extending well into 2022 it’s more important than ever for both business and urban dwellers to make use of roof decks.

See more examples of wood planter anchored screen walls on DeepStream's solutions website — Wood garden planters with trellis and privacy screen create a modern roof deck for alfresco dining and lounging area

The best way to reduce waste and recycle is not to purchase items that will be thrown away quickly. DeepStream was founded as the result of our search for sustainably designed planters that would stand the test of time.

Matching modern wood trash and recycling bins create a modern Manhattan rooftop patio that will endure for decades.

For more information on how you can use wood garden planters with trellis and privacy screen create a modern rooftop patio see DeepStream's solutions website — Wood garden planters with trellis and privacy screen create a modern rooftop patio

These wood privacy screen walls use separated wood planks held securely within DeepStream’s trademark marine-anodized structural leg extrusions. Space between the planks blocks the view, allows for cooling air flow, and reduces the force of high winds on the planter.

DeepStream’s large modular wood planters do more than hold the wood privacy screen. The wood planter boxes equipped with waterproof plastic liners provide the perfect condition for landscaping with bushes, flowers, or even trees.

DeepStream 16 rugged waterproof Planter Liners — DeepStream’s 16 rugged, tapered waterproof Planter Liners with advanced drainage

Each modular planter section’s aluminum frame supports a rugged waterproof plastic liner to contain the planting medium. DeepStream’s proprietary liners have a tapered shaped for easy replanting. They are designed with an advanced drainage system that can be directed if necessary using common threaded fittings.

s Multi-Section Commercial Planters anchor integrated wood and glass privacy screen wall on a urban roof deck — DeepStream’s Multi-Section Commercial Planters anchor integrated privacy screen wall on a urban roof deck without penetrating the roof membrane.

The liner within a wood planter box design leaves space to hide drip irrigation systems and directed drainage if required. The resulting airspace between the wood planter box and the plastic liner prevents solar gain from overheating the root ball.

Solar gain is a real problem on terraces, balconies, and roof decks with south- and west-facing exposures. The result of this design is that the roots remain at ambient air temperature.

Measuring planter wall temperature created by solar gain — Measuring planter wall temperature at 125 created by solar gain on a 75-degree day

Solar gain will heat any single-wall planter or pot to over 145 degrees on an 85-degree day. As a result, the root ball on the sunny side overheats, stressing the plants no matter how much water they receive.

DeepStream wood planters will also hold screen walls of any material. Glass screen wall is popular to limit access on a roof deck as a parapet wall without blocking the view. Glass also makes a good security screen wall to limit access to a pool area, while allowing visibility for safety.

RPL has much lower maintenance costs and better long-term presentation. This is especially true for food outlets, restaurants, movie theaters, water parks, and parking lots where liquids will often be spilled. Natural wood will absorb stains that simply wipe off of RPL.

Accessories add Functionality

Accessory casters for mobility add functionality to heavy food service carts

Rugged stainless steel casters add functionality to custom fixtures.

While all of DeepSteams accessories add functionality to custom fixtures, Casters are the most often requested accessory by customers. Casters can be attached to a recessed frame to hide them, or they can be added directly to the corners of the trademark marine anodized aluminum legs.

There are rugged accessory casters for almost every product. Stainless steel casters for heavy wooden food service carts, garden planters, or a weatherproof point-of-sale terminal cabinet. Medium duty dual wheel accessory casters work extremely well indoors on both carpet and hard floors.

The second most requested accessory to add functionality is leveling feet.

DeepStream Designs stocks two types of levelers for the bottom of products made with Audubon legs, like the bin pictured below. Both levelers have a maximum adjustment range of approximately 1-3/4 inches and rugged 12mm (1/2″) thick stainless steel stems with non-marking plastic footpads.

rigid and articulated levelling feet are popular accessories to add functionality to custom fixtures — Rigid leveler compared to an articulated leveler

The pad of Rigid Leveler fits completely under a leg, raising the bin by 5/8” at a minimum. The Articulated Leveler, at right, has a wider foot pad that sticks out just a bit and raises the bin by 1-1/8” at its lowest setting. Both Levelers can be retrofitted in the field by affixing a special nut inside the void designed into the bottom of the DeepStream Designs trademark marine anodized aircraft aluminum leg.

The Rigid Leveler, above, is a lighter weight leveler with a smaller ridged floor pad for situations where the floor is generally flat, but there may be different levels caused by bricks or tile that are not completely level.

articulated leveler inserted in to the void of DeepStream's marine anodized aluminum leg — The wider articulated leveler for slopes

The Articulated Leveler, above, has a thicker and wider articulated pad that will rotate off level for situations where the bin is placed on a slope and you need to level it up, not just stabilize the leg for a lower tile or brick.

Which one do you need? If you’re placing a trash or recycling receptacle in a situation like the one shown below built with 100% recycled plastic lumber, where the brick sidewalk slopes sharply away from the building, you need the articulated leveler as a shown retrofitted on the right.

articulated levelers — Don’t try to balance your custom fixture on makeshift levelers when it’s easy to add proper leveling feet.

Optional Smokers Outpost can be factory installed or retrofitted.

Another popular accessory that adds functionality is the Smokers Outpost, available in Stainless Steel, silver grey and black .

Adaptation: Trash and Recycling Bin Weatherproof Cover

Modern combination trash bin and recycling receptacle with a weatherproof lid

Adaptation, a hallmark of our Sustainable Design philosophy, is reflected in our products’ modular design. Why throw away and replace when you can adapt?

Adaptation, a key component of Sustainable Design embraced by Deepstream is the ability of our products to adapt. Adaptive Design allows for the replacement, or reworking, of components to preserve the value and materials of an earlier design.

The adaptive cover below was created for a school in California. The school was committed to recycling, but was also home to feisty squirrels that rummaged their bins. The result, a “weatherproof ” critter cover.

An example of adaptation, Recycling Receptacle and Trash Bin weatherproof cover crafted in 316 stainless steel by DeepStream keeps rain and animals out shown closed — Recycling Receptacle and Trash Bin cover crafted in 316 stainless steel by DeepStream keeps rain and animals out

If your top loading Audubon modern DeepStream recycling receptacle or trash bin is outside and you have raccoons, you might want to adapt your cover and lid with a low-profile slot and hasp for a lock. This also works if your neighbors are using your bin.

An example of adaptive design a lock hasp added to a modern stainless steel trash or recycling receptacle lid — Adaptive design: a lock hasp added to a modern stainless steel trash or recycling receptacle lid

DeepStream builds every product as if the application is in a coastal environment near salt water or out in the rain. This adaptive flap is constructed from 18-gauge 316 stainless steel, whereas the lid is 16-gauge 316 stainless steel.

Adaptation, a Recycling Receptacle and Trash Bin cover crafted in 316 stainless steel by DeepStream keeps rain and animals out, shown open — Recycling Receptacle and Trash Bin cover crafted in 316 stainless steel by DeepStream keeps rain and animals out

The hinged design is simple and robust, just like our bins. The low profile stainless steel piano hinge attaches to the lid with flush fasteners. A template makes it easy to adapt your existing lid with a drill and a screwdriver.

DeepStream modern wood multi stream recycling bin with open weatherproof cover open outside at a school — Outdoor Recycling Bins

The 18-8 stainless steel handle has a standard distance between mounting holes. Should it be damaged, it can be replaced at cost, as can any individual piece, through DeepStream’s Core Replacement Program. You may also customize your handles when ordering or buy a substitute wherever kitchen hardware is sold.

The only compromise we have found in this design adaptation is that simple care needs to be taken when opening the lid to replace the bags that line the inner bins. However, it is an intuitive maneuver to open the lid with one hand while holding and gently lowering the cover with the other hand.

Of course, the cover also works well to keep out heavy rains and snow.

Custom Fixtures created using the principles of Sustainable Design

A suite of outdoor custom fixtures at a tropical waterpark made with weatherproof recycled plastic lumber

Custom fixtures, created with DeepStream Designs’ trademark custom marine anodized aluminum extrusions, are both durable and cost effective.

Weatherproof exterior and interior custom fixtures using 100% recycled and primary materials last for decades, are easy to maintain and ultimately to recycle. Backed by a Lifetime Structural Warranty, they deliver the lowest cost of ownership over time, reducing the impact on the Earth’s resources.

DeepStream handcrafts custom fixtures using its trademark marine anodized aluminum extrusions and 316 stainless steel. There is no paint or powder coating to fail. For every product purchased from DeepStream, we plant between 50 and 100 trees in our customers’ honor through Trees for the Future.

Both are constructed with maintenance free recycled plastic lumber

Custom Fixtures without custom prices. DeepStream’s unique trademark marine anodized aluminum extrusions, with quick-change slide-in panel system, allow us to craft customized solutions to meet our customers’ needs.

DeepStream's Custom Fixtures are built using 5 primary trademark marine anodized aluminum extrusions engineered for extreme conditions — DeepStream’s Modern Custom Fixtures are built using trademark marine anodized aluminum extrusions such as the 5 primary extrusions shown here.

Accessories like swinging doors, tambour doors, shelves, and casters for mobility take advantage of the extrusion design to deliver cost effective custom solutions without custom prices. There is never a design fee, whether you order one custom fixture or 100.

Recycled Plastic Lumber (RPL) is a perfect weather and sun proof material to use with DeepStream’s marine anodized aluminum extrusions. Custom RPL fixtures may be pressure cleaned for sanitation and maintenance as there is no paint or powder coating to fail. The manufacturer of the recycled plastic lumber provides a 50 year warranty.

16-gauge 316 stainless steel tops and stainless fittings ensure that these custom fixtures will stand up to the elements. All fittings are attached using a proprietary dielectric paste on all the fasteners. This paste prevents the stainless fasteners from seizing in the aluminum so that if any part of a custom fixture is damaged it may be replaced.

Custom Towel Shelves and Returns

More customers purchase custom fixtures made with environmentally friendly recycled plastic lumber now than tropical hardwood. With that said, DeepStream’s aluminum extrusion will allow tropical hardwood fixtures to last for decades. The Custom Towel Shelf with Towel Return Bins in the photo below is equipped with casters for mobility and is crafted with Cumaru wood instead of recycled plastic lumber.

Planter anchored screen wall creates upscale sidewalk cafes

Restaurant planter anchored glass screen wall windbreak

planters with glass windscreen create an upscale sidewalk restaurant — DeepStream’s large rectangular wood planter with glass screen wall

Planter anchor screen wall created by DeepStream using the principles of Sustainable Design are movable and do not need to penetrate sidewalks or even roof decks. Use them to create upscale sidewalk restaurant patios and cafes that will extend your outdoor dining season an not run afoul of city regulations.

The large movable wood garden planters with a glass screen wall shown here do more than just create a physical space. The screen wall quiets noise, creating inviting spaces for customers to dine and linger over drinks. They also direct traffic controlling access points and hold strings of lights that draw attention to your establishment when your open day or night.

The quality of DeepStream’s planters with glass windbreak will also give your potential customers a positive feeling about the quality of the food and interior space. Modular construction sets up quickly, and the planters can be mounted on hidden casters for mobility. Caster options allow restaurants to reconfigure the space over time to meet changing needs or even be put away for the winter season snow removal.

Don’t confuse DeepStreams commercial wood planters for carpenter built ones you see falling apart after 3-5 years. These planters are a engineered 3 part system consisting of structural legs and frame, inner waterproof liner, and outer box. Carpenter-built wood planters will fall apart in a few years, wasting valuable rainforest wood, time, and money. DeepStream’s structural interior frame also allows the use non-structural recycled plastic lumber for maintenance free planters that can last for 50 years or more with out significant fading.

DeepStream’s unique trademark marine-anodized aluminum legs and interior aircraft aluminum frame allow for a Lifetime Structural Warranty for your planters. The structural frame integrates the screen wall into the structure of the planter by engineered design, not as an afterthought. It’s the frame that provides the longevity to wood, allows the use of recycled plastic lumber, and provides structural mounting points for casters and slip in easy screen wall of glass, aluminum, laser cut patterns, wood, and more.

Waterproof plastic liners keep the soil from touching the wood which keeps roots cooler and increase the the longevity of the wood box from 3-5 years to decades while providing advanced drainage and growing conditions.

Reduce cost by specifying recycled plastic lumber (RPL) to replace wood. Using RPL reduces maintenance costs, as it does not require periodic refinishing like wood does, and has a a 50-year limited warranty. In addition, DeepStream’s marine-anodized legs mean that there is no paint or powder coating to fail, so planters with a screen wall may be pressure cleaned.

Replacing wood with recycled plastic lumber provides a commercial market for recycling plastics such as milk bottles. Using RPL saves critical tropical rainforest trees and habitat. Which ever material you specify, DeepStream plants 50 trees in our customers’ honor for every planter and 100 trees for every recycling or trash bin purchased through the non-profit Trees for the Future.

DeepStream handcrafts other weatherproof Custom Outdoor Fixtures for restaurants, including Modern Trash and Recycling Bins.

Sustainable Design: measure twice cut once

A key component of Sustainable Design embraced by Deepstream is adaptability. Adaptive design allows for the replacement, or reworking, of components to preserve the value and materials of an earlier design when a situation requires it.

Adaptive design may be required in advance as a design feature on projects where ongoing work will require an installation to move. As other features are added to a project, DeepStream can work with your initial plans to reconfigure existing installations. This feature has many benefits for seasonal installation of planters for a sidewalk café or a restaurant patio.

There is never a design fee and reconfiguring may not even require new parts. If new parts are required, it’s a simple job for Deepstream to add a few additional joining planks and extrusions.

The rooftop dog park, photo below, is an example where the building developer may move an entire complex structure. The aluminum frame of the Deepstream modular wood planters that hold the wood and glass screen wall and gates can easily be disassembled and reconfigured.

If, for any reason, fixtures ordered months earlier in a project don’t fit when finally installed, the value of adaptive design is readily apparent. A miscalculation between initial measurements and “as-built” dimensions can be corrected easily in a cost effective manner literally overnight.

The 3 photos below show an example where DeepStream’s modular planter, created with adaptive design, allowed us to accommodate an unrecorded change in dimensions. At very little cost in time, dollars, or materials, we were able to supply new planks for the middle section of the multi-section planter.

Fiberglass, metal, or concrete planters would have not been able to accommodate this type of error common on large projects.

Adaptive design allows modification of modular wood planters to adapt from planned dimension to the actual as built measurements — A 3 section modular wood planter before adapting the planter to the as built measurements

While the new wood planks will take a week or so to fade to match the color of existing planks, the same adaptive design feature allows for replacement of parts or further adaptation for the life of the planter.

Packaging: The final step in Sustainable Design and Manufacturing

Packaging: The final step in Sustainable Design and Manufacturing for DeepStream Designs:

Sustainable Design, coupled with manufacturing products that stand the test of time in an environmentally responsible and sustainable fashion, allows DeepStream’s Customers to eliminate the “throw away” waste factor found in many of today’s products.

However, that is just the start of DeepStream’s Environmental Stewardship.

It is not enough that our products will last for generations and help slow the destruction of the rainforest. Or that our products are 100% recyclable when their end of service finally comes. Or that we replant thousands of trees through “Trees for the Future” every year in our customers’ honor, a program which also offers locals alternative forestry jobs in tree nurseries and reforestation.

Even more potential rainforest destruction is diverted by offering planking for our recycling bins and garden planters made from recycled plastic.

DeepStream also ensures that it is meeting our environmental stewardship commitments with our packaging.

All of our cardboard used in shipping is 100% recycled content and purchased through Pratt Industries, www.prattindustries.com. Similarly, we build our pallets in house to ensure that the 2x4s we use are harvested and certified through either the Sustainable Forestry Initiative, www.sfiprogram.org , or the Forest Stewardship Council, www.fsc.org, or both. These standards provide third-party verification that the forest management and on-the-ground activities used by the lumber producers are environmentally responsible and sustainable.
