A Greener Path to Gorgeous Walls

Our Sustainabilty
Initiatives

Here at Area, nature lives in the hearts of many of us, and we believe that the only thing more beautiful than art itself is the breathtaking natural beauty of our planet.

 

A team of co-workers brainstorming new ideas.

How we build, run and grow our business is important, and we consider the impact we make with every decision. We work hard to source the very best materials, utilize the very best supplies, and create the very best wallcoverings that are safe for your family and your home.

Blending the Mission of Sustainability and Beauty

Clean Process, Clean Air

We use 100% PVC-Free Media & Greengold Certified Inks. Our low-VOC wallpaper makes it possible to decorate with style while protecting your loved ones from harmful toxins.

Sustainably Sourced

Our paper is sourced from responsibly managed forests and is 100% PVC-Free. FSC certification supports forest conservation, offers social benefits, and enables the market to provide an incentive for better forest management.

Plastic-Free Packaging

Our packaging is 100% recyclable and plastic free. Our 100% FSC-certified branded packing is printed with soy-based inks and coated with a water-based coating.

Renewable Energy

We currently utilize solar energy for our business, resulting in clean, quiet, and infinitely renewable energy for our operations. We are committed to exploring other ways that renewable energy can power our business to reduce our carbon footprint even more.

Minimal Waste

We print on demand, which results in less waste. Zero inventory means zero wasted material. We reuse waste for other internal projects whenever possible.

Made in the USA

Shopping locally offers many benefits that can have a ripple effect, such as job creation, enforcing safe and fair working conditions, and a focus on quality that results in a longer-lasting product.

Every Little Bit Helps

Responsibility needs to be at the heart of good design and a good life. From our cleaner printing practices to our hybrid office environment; we’re always striving to protect the world around us to the best of our abilities.

However, we know there is always room for improvement. We are committed to mindfully analyzing our production and business practices on a regular basis, always trying a little bit harder every day to be better for our customers, our artists, and our planet.

Supporting Artists

There are many sides to sustainability, and an often overlooked issue is how we protect our community and our community’s future. We believe artists make the world a better place. By honoring their original artwork and sharing a portion of every sale, our artists succeed when we succeed.

 

We hope to inspire more people to become creators instead of just consumers.

Sustainable Style You Can Trust

We only use FSC-Certified Paper.

All murals are printed with low-VOC ink.
