Steelcase Wood Plant (office furniture)

Steelcase set an industry precedent when they constructed the world's first manufacturing plant to receive LEED certification. When they began the construction planning process for this new wood manufacturing plant in West Michigan back in 2001, LEED criteria had not been interpreted within the unique context of a manufacturing environment. Working closely with the U.S. Green Building Council, Steelcase successfully incorporated key criteria into the building design and received a Silver Certification rating, thus setting a standard for others in the industry to follow.
