Not only are Polywood® shutters a fully recyclable shutter, but they also contain up to 20% recycled Polywood content. No other shutter company in San Diego – or even in America – does that.
Sunburst supports green design, products, and buildings. We aim for reusing any and all materials whenever it’s feasible. We recycle water that cools down items as they’re finished in the ovens. We reuse packaging materials. We reuse shutter pieces – or regrind them and recycle them into new shutters. Each year we recycle hundreds of tons of materials.
When we prepare our window treatments for transportation to your residence for installation, we place reusable corner pieces on the louvers’ edges and use minimal cardboard to package the shutters.
Our interior shutters use patented paints that are shown to be hypoallergenic and environmentally safe. In our manufacturing method, our paints don’t emit fumes. When we claim our paints aren’t toxic, we mean it.
Polywood Shutters do not emit dangerous gasses – so you and your family can breathe easily and enjoy your window treatments.
