A Good Planet is Hard to Find

It's Our Responsibility to Act as Stewards of Our Planet and Its Natural Resources

For nearly a century, we’ve created products that are made from responsible materials, manufactured in a sustainable manner and designed to be easily reclaimed at the end of their life cycle.

With more than 125,000 individual parts moving through our 400,000 square foot manufacturing facility, even the smallest steps towards greater environmental efficiency can help us make a very big difference.

With more than 125,000 individual parts moving through our 400,000 square foot manufacturing facility, even the smallest steps towards greater environmental efficiency can help us make a very big difference.

The Right Materials

Sustainable products are products built to last. That means choosing materials that have the lowest possible impact on the environment that can withstand the physical demands of communities and years of changing weather conditions.

Responsible Sourcing

We work with our suppliers to source the most environmentally preferable materials for our products and processes. We make every effort to work with suppliers in local communities to minimize our carbon output.

Recycled Content

The more recycled content we use, the more we help keep existing materials in a continuous cycle of use and reuse. From steel to plastic, we include as much pre-consumer and post-consumer recycled content in our products as possible.

Saving Energy

Every kilowatt-hour of energy we save is another decrease in our greenhouse gas emissions. We utilize the most energy-efficient processes possible to reduce our overall environmental impact.

Conserving Water

As water becomes an increasingly valuable resource, using only the water we really need is a valuable investment in the future of our world. We reduce water consumption with the use of high-efficiency technology for product painting and washing.

Eliminating Waste

Decreasing waste is one of the best ways to make a big impact on our environmental footprint. In addition to using material that already contains recycled content, we also make every effort to reduce waste associated with our manufacturing processes. 

U.S. Green Building Council

Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) is one of the world’s best-recognized certification programs for buildings, homes, and communities. GameTime products contribute to LEED in a variety of areas, including recycled content, and heat island reduction.
