Treehugger writer Kristen said it so well, we'll just repeat what she wrote here: "Gone are the days when a few cinder blocks and a couple of 2x6's constituted your shelving units. Today you can get shelves for pretty cheap, but the materials that go into them are also pretty cheap and probably not sustainable. The folks at Way Basics decided to engineer a product that uses some of that excess waste office paper, but that is also durable enough to last for years before it is recycled back into more zBoard shelves and cabinets. The zBoards are made from 100% -- 99% post-consumer recycled and 1% paper veneer for the outside." (via Treehugger.com)
