Vastu is committed to conducting business in an environmentally responsible way, that’s one of the reasons you’ll never see a printed catalog from us. It also means that we’re always on the lookout for manufacturers and furniture makers who create using eco-friendly materials and manufacturing processes.

One of our newest vendors creates contemporary pieces using 97% recycled rubber from tires molded into shapes of various dimensions. The Rubber Cube and Rubber Cylinder come in a total of 10 standard sizes and 8 colors are suitable for both indoors and outdoors and are exceptionally durable.

You can use these as side tables, like our model shown above, or as cocktail tables and even stools.

Their porous nature makes them easy to clean with almost no maintenance and they’re anti-fungal and anti-bacterial.

2. EcoSmart Fires Qualify for Federal Tax Credits for Energy Efficiency Through 2010

On February 17, 2009, President Obama signed into law a stimulus bill (The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009) that made significant changes to the Tax Credits available for purchase of Nonbusiness Energy Property.

Would a tax credit fire you up?

June 25, 2009 · Posted in Eco-friendly design ideas, Living room furniture · 1 Comment 

In February 2009, President Obama announced there would be a tax credit available for the purchase of energy efficient fixtures for all non-business properties. Under this “Recovery and Reinvestment Act” the purchase of an EcoSmart fireplace qualifies buyers for a 30% tax credit (up to $1,500).  The innovative and unique ranges also fulfills the cutting edge design enthusiast in all of us.

The EcoSmart ranges are flueless units that burn on clean, natural denatured ethanol (alcohol).  The fireplace below happens to be freestanding.

Have a traditional fireplace? No problem, EcoSmart has also developed a line of ranges that can be retrofitted into almost any existing fireplace as well as an array of artistically inspired pieces.  Don’t just take my word for it, stop into our showroom and have a look.
