Earth Friendly

Tarma uses environmentally responsible materials and practices wherever we can. We're not perfect, but we're making headway with recycled materials, low waste processes and more aware decisions about our footprint in the world. It's worth our effort for the next generation!

Stainless Steel a "green metal"

Tarma's 316L stainless has a +60% post-consumer recycled content and ability to be worked in many different finishes. It can be cut or cast and made in many finishes, including brushed and sand blasted. It will never tarnish, is very lightweight and strong. It's a great substitute for gold and silver.

Vacuum Plated Finishes

New for 2008 are vacuum plated finishes in faux gold. Environmentallyfriendly vacuum plating doesn't use liquids like electro-plating or anodizing processes, which leave toxic liquid waste that has to be disposed.

Shipping Containers

The last step in maximizing use of recycled materials and environmentally responsible practices comes in our shipping containers. For envelopes and boxes, we use unbleached mailers and corrugated cardboard with a minimum of 60% post consumer content paper.
