New York — Tabletop permanent showroom building Forty One Madison is going green. Building owner Rudin Management unveiled the first steps during the recent October Tabletop Market: the five new showrooms on the 17th floor used ecologically friendly products for “virtually every element”. For example all carpeting, in both the showrooms and corridors, is LEED certified, constructed of recycled materials which can ultimately be recycled. As new showrooms open and existing ones expand or remodel, only recyclable materials and energy efficient products will be specified, a policy Rudin extends to all its buildings.
Laurie Burns, senior vice president and director of Forty One Madison, said in a statement, “Energy efficient infrastructure, from security and alarm systems, is the path we are taking going forward. After all, ‘green is the new black’ isn’t it?”
