EcoUrban Collection Cabinetry
We LOVE the new cabinetry collection by EcoUrban, out of Chicago, and are using their product in many of our homes. What makes them special?
There are a bunch of reasons we like the company and think that it’s differentiated. The shortlist is that they:
- have put a ton of R&D into the product to make it very highly green – answering a lot of the health issues related to off-gassing in building products;
- are well-branded and have a beautiful, aesthetic, European-looking product at a price point that is significantly lower than other high-end products, and just marginally above the ubiquitous high-volume, low-quality cabinetry producers seen throughout the building industry;
- have a product line that is interchangeable (think the Swatch Smart Car) so that as clients grow in their new homes, they can ‘upgrade’ their cabinetry for something on the $5-$10K order, rather than the ridiculous $20K-$30K upgrades for in other good cabinetry; and
- are an ‘on demand’ producer that builds right here in the U.S., and that can offer stability of supply and longevity beyond many of the other mom and pop green/eco cabinetry manufacturers that are used regionally by folks trying to build green homes. Just as importantly, this means they are creating green jobs right here in the USA!
