CloseoutCabinets.com Goes Green, Upgrades Lighting System

Feb. 11, 2011 - PRLog -- "When I was growing up, ecology wasn't really on the scale of values, and the term "carbon footprint" hadn't even been coined yet. Truthfully, when I first heard about going green, I was skeptical. But the more I researched the topic the more I became convinced that it was the responsible thing to do."  

   This was the statement issued by David Indik, president of CloseoutCabinets.com. His company is a renowned kitchen cabinet seller based in Feasterville, Pennsylvannia. Their mammoth facility is a landmark at Levittown; a state-of-the-art showroom with 160,000 square feet of warehouse space where over 100,000 cabinets are in stock. This is only one of 3, with two others located at Ocean County, New Jersey and Baltimore County, Maryland.

   Recognizing the fact that a sizable business like theirs can make a significant impact, Indik took the first step in making his environmentally conscientious vision into a reality by initiating a lighting system upgrade for the company's warehouses. With the aid of Green Light Energy Conservation, a national firm specializing in energy-efficient lighting solutions, CloseoutCabinets.com installed high-efficiency fluorescent lighting, a switch that translated to better illumination and lower operation costs.

   This further reinforces the idea that environmental concerns and economic growth complement each other. Neil Dayan, CloseoutCabinets.com's warehouse manager echoes this sentiment:

"Our decision was strongly influenced by environmental concerns. However, our bottom line counts too. Our new lighting will pay for itself in a short time. Energy bills are now much lower, and we qualified for government incentive and rebates as well. On top of that, our warehouse is considerably well-lit than it was before."

   CloseoutCabinets.com Kitchen Cabinets PA, vigorously advocating “green” practices, also provides more information on the importance of lighting efficiency at http://www.closeoutcabinets.com. An assessment of Energy Star, an EPA program can be found in an article on their website, estimating that if each homeowner in the US alone replace their existing incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs, a reduction of green house gases equivalent to the emissions of 800,000 cars can be seen, as well as electricity savings enough to light 3.1 million homes.
