TreeHouse, a New Approach to Home Improvement Retailing, Selects Sansin Wood Stains

Oct. 31, 2011 - PRLog -- The Sansin Corporation today announced that Austin-based home improvement retailer, TreeHouse, will offer Sansin’s line of Enviro Stains at its first retail location in Austin, Texas.

TreeHouse represents a new and smarter approach to home improvement retailing.
Every product sold at TreeHouse undergoes a stringent screening process. Products are scored in the categories of health, performance, corporate responsibility and sustainability.

“We are excited to be in on the ground floor of such an innovative home improvement concept,” said Sjoerd Bos, Vice President of Sansin.  “TreeHouse is a perfect fit for our line of products since they combine a true commitment to healthier, sustainable living and the promise to deliver impeccable customer service and consumer education. Sansin has always maintained that safer and greener wood care does not mean you have to compromise on beauty or performance.”

“Working with wood coatings should not adversely affect one’s health,” said Kevin Graham, VP Marketing and Co-Founder of TreeHouse. “Sansin’s line of low VOC wood stains allows customers to beautify their wood in a way that is safer and healthier because it doesn’t expose them to toxins found in traditional coatings.”

TreeHouse will carry Sansin’s interior and exterior line of Enviro Stains, cleaners and sealants (DEC™, Classic™, ENS™, SDF™ and Purity®) at its location at the Westgate Shopping Center at 4477 S. Lamar Blvd, Austin, Texas. The 25,000 sq. ft. building was completely remodeled and is LEED certified.

For 25 years, Sansin has been the only wood protection company focused exclusively on researching, developing, and introducing environmentally friendly, ‘water-borne’ interior and exterior wood products and technologies. Select Sansin finishes comply with the recently updated and stringent California Proposition 65 regulations, conform to requirements to attain LEED credits for indoor environmental quality, and also meet strict CARB VOC regulations, considered the nation’s strictest air quality regulations issued by the Southern California Air Quality Management District for architectural coatings (SCAQMD 1113).
