Environmental Sustainability facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

sustainability We recognize the interconnected relationship among people, business and the environment, and strive to achieve balance as we continue to evolve. facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

broader perspective Traditional views of The focus is now This wider perspective the built environment broadening to include of the built environment have emphasized Human Performance, is a more Sustainable Facility Performance. Designed Performance Performance approach. and Environmental Performance. facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

why should we be concerned? facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

facility performance U.S. buildings represent In fact: • 65% of electricity 12% of drywall on a consumption job is wasted during • 33% of total waste in installation – 1.8 million North America is from tons annually construction, renovation and demolition of buildings. facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

traditional changes Renovating with conventional construction involves : • tearing down drywall • pulling up carpet • cutting and removing cables and electrical wiring All of which can end up in a landfill. facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

our approach. . . adaptable workspaces the greener solution why? Advocates integrating: • modular and moveable walls • access floors • furniture and utilities that work together to create spaces that are infinitely reconfigurable. facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

accommodates change Haworth adaptable workspaces • Generate less waste at installation • Are durable and reusable to eliminate future waste • Conserve resources by using fewer materials and less energy facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

creating adaptable workspaces • Enclose Movable Walls • LifeSpace Moveable Walls • Plug-and-Play Power and Cabling • TecCrete and Nexus Access Flooring • Modular Furniture Systems and Seating facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

Enclose & LifeSpace Movable Walls • Pre-manufactured means fewer materials and less waste on site • 98% reusable facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

Plug-and-Play Power and Cabling • Utilities teamed with Access Flooring require less labor and generate less on-site installation waste • 100% reusable facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

TecCrete Access Flooring • Used with underfloor air, the space below the floor becomes the plenum requiring 80% less ductwork than conventional HVAC • 100% reusable facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

Modular Furniture and Seating Modular systems and seating: • grow with your company • adjust to change • can be refurbished for extended life facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

an adaptable workspace By combining all these products we create the ultimate adaptable workspace. facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

energy efficiency Haworth products combined with other building systems and products increase energy efficiency. facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

energy efficiency Underfloor air with TecCrete is up to 30% more energy efficient. facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

energy efficiency Our products can interface with building control systems to reduce overall energy demands. facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

enhances user satisfaction human performance . . . facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

not just about waste & resource allocation • EPA ranks indoor air pollution among the top five environmental risks to health • Air pollution can be 5-100 times greater indoors than outdoors facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

better health and increased productivity Studies link worker health and productivity to sustainable features including: • thermal comfort • user control • daylighting • better air quality facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

thermal comfort Individual swirl diffusers allow users to control workspace temperature by up to six degrees. facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

user control – Haworth task lighting lighting solutions are energy efficient and user controlled. facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

daylighting Multiple glazing options for walls and furniture allow maximum use of daylighting. facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

improved air quality Haworth major With raised floor furniture lines are and underfloor air distribution, GREENGUARD™ Certified. ventilation is from floor to ceiling • for more efficient airflow • a faster exchange of air • better air quality facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

designed performance facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

Design for Environment . . . materials and products We’re committed to Design for Environment (DfE) strategies including: • cleaner materials • increased recycled content • design for disassembly • recycling • renewable materials facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

Zody™ Seating • Cleaner materials • Cradle to cradle protocol • Wind energy credits facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

Zody™ Seating • First and only chair to earn MBDC Gold certification • GREENGUARD™ Certified • Up to 52% recycled content • Up to 98% recyclable • Designed for disassembly • End-of-life take-back program facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

renewable materials We offer FSC-certified Bamboo, Lyptus and materials for wood other renewable products. materials are options. facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

helping customers achieve their sustainable performance goals facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection Haworth partnered on four LEED Gold high performance facilities. facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

Compuware Headquarters By using Haworth access flooring: • Height between floors was reduced by six inches • 15 floors in a 14 story building • Major savings in raw material costs facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance

U.S. Green Building Council’s Headquarters Haworth product was selected to furnish USGBC’s new space • Awarded LEED-CI silver certification facility human designed overview our spaces walking the talk performance performance performance
