BrandSource Gets GREEN with ECOSOURCE
ECOSOURCE symbolizes BrandSource’s commitment to preserving our resources and the environment.
As suppliers of ENERGYSTAR® qualified home appliances and electronics, installed in hundreds of thousands of homes across America, we’re contributing to the effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions for future generations. With cooperation between the Environmental Protection Agency, home appliance and electronic manufacturers, and BrandSource, a compilation of small steps to “green up” the environment is making a huge difference to be good stewards of our local environment and leaders in our community.
Over the decades, BrandSource has focused on bringing the most energy-efficient products to market. We support “Eco-friendly” technologies designed to integrate into your home. We are proud to have aligned ourselves with such conscientious home appliance manufacturers as: Amana, Bosch, Fisher & Paykel, Frigidaire, GE, Jenn-Air, KitchenAid, Maytag, and Whirlpool and electronics manufacturers like: Mitsubishi, Samsung and Sony.
The ECOSOURCE story is one that intends to encourage consumers to buy green. We give you our assurance that no compromises have been made on the quality, durability, or enhanced performance of your home improvement products. Ask your local BrandSource dealer about the ENERGYSTAR® rating. They'll give you the facts about "smart" purchases to lower your household's total energy bill while helping to keep our planet healthier.
In alliance with the Natural Resources Defense Council and in compliance with Federal Environmental Protection Agency Mandates, BrandSource has long been a leader in the responsible disposal of hazardous waste, serving as recycling centers for harmful pollutants, such as refrigerants containing fluorocarbons, and continuing to provide recycling services to consumers across the United States.
