C/S mentioned on McDonough’s Cradle to Cradle blog

Reading around today on the Cradle to Cradle blog over at MBDC, noticed a (older) post after Bill had been to the Greenbuild show in Chicago, where he mentions some of the up and coming companies working on Cradle to Cradle certification (including Construction Specialties!)

Here’s what he says:

“I just got back from the Greenbuild conference in Chicago. It was good to wander round the Expo and see who is doing (and claiming) what environmentally speaking. On the one hand it was exciting to see how far we have come but on the other hand, seeing how “thin” some manufacturers green claims actually are inspires us to go further looking for more opportunities for cradle to cradle products and certifications.

This observation made me especially proud of the Cradle to Cradle community of exhibitors there including: American Polysteel, BASF, Cabot, Centria, Haworth, Herman Miller, Hycrete, Icestone, Mechoshade, Shaw, Solutia, Steelcase, and Timbersil who all achieved and been instrumental in launching the cradle to cradle certification program with us. Kudos also to Allsteel, Construction Specialties Group, Sloan and others who are in process with their certifications.”

About

After attending school for Economics & Business, I was fortunate enough to hook up with several mentors willing to take me under their wing and open my eyes to a world of business, collaboration and game-changing innovation.

And while doing business in China, developing products for souks in Abu Dhabi and working on a startup right here in Toronto would be great additions for anybody’s resume, I am most grateful for the couple of CEOs and the one-of-a-kind Consultant who have shown & allowed me to think differently and make a real impact. The fact that I’ll likely never use that resume is my biggest indicator that I’m on the right path to an exciting and rewarding career.

The Kev Blog celebrates those principles: entrepreneurship, innovation, creativity, freedom, collaboration, and youth. A collection of articles for CEOs looking to keep ‘in the loop’, and for young renegades on a mission to show us the next disruptive company or technology that will change the world.

I believe there should be young people contributing and influencing decisions at the top of every organization, that age is a state of mind and that the most successful organizations in a game-changing world will be those which embrace youth and collaboration.

This is The Kev Blog – a collection of game-changing ideas.
