HON Initiate - Manual (Page 3)

ORDER ALL YOU WANT, WE'LL GROW MORE
Nature Core is made primarily from natural
fibers. Kenaf, the plant fiber used in Nature
Core, is related to cotton and is also used for
rope, animal feed and paper.
Nature Core is a more sustainable solution
because the kenaf plants used to make it are
rapidly renewable — the plant grows 12-14 feet
in just four or five months, producing one to
two harvests every year.
CLEARING THE AIR
Nature Core does not just reduce the impact
to the environment, it's better for your office
environment too.
Because no formaldehyde is added during
production, and only natural flame-retardant
materials are used, Initiate meets the most
stringent indoor air quality standards.
Nature Core works in concert with low-
emitting worksurfaces to make Initiate the
very first panel system to earn Indoor
Advantage™ Gold certification from
Scientific Certification Systems (SCS).
NATURALLY SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE
With Nature Core, you don't have to choose
between performance and environmental
responsibility.
• Initiate's Sound Transmission Class (STC)
exceeds BIFMA standards.
• Meets UL Class "A" fire rating.
• Adds rigidity to panels, increasing
workstation stability.
• Can contribute to LEED ® credits.
See back page to understand how.
