Green Supplier Spotlight—Southern Aluminum's Sustainable Furniture

Southern Aluminum has been passionately manufacturing sustainable meeting, event, and banquet furniture for more than forty years. Proudly made in the U.S., our sustainability mission is to be good stewards to the environment, taking exceptional care in the green practices needed to manufacture product from start to finish. Aluminum is one of the most sustainable materials today due to its recyclability, and its ability to lower energy costs and carbon emissions. By utilizing aluminum in our products, Southern Aluminum offers the most sustainable linenless furniture solutions to the industry and guarantees the Linenless Advantage.

Our products offer operational excellence, and safe, sanitary, and sustainable solutions. Linenless tables provide a clean and contemporary look to sets, while also requiring less labor to set and strike. With these modifications, the event or banquet room will be turned into a refreshed, more efficient, and modern space. Linenless tables reduce laundry expenses and eliminate linen inventory costs, while also greatly reducing the amount of water, chemicals, and energy needed for everyday linens.

Table linens and the associated laundry and labor costs and water consumption are extremely expensive. Our ROI financial model is designed to illustrate the potential operational savings using linenless tables versus standard tables with linens. In addition, the model can calculate the ROI payback period.

All of our products contain at least 70% recycled aluminum. Over the years, the manufacturing facility has implemented several sustainable practices and equipment to divert waste away from landfills and improve the recycling of aluminum, scrap metal, cardboard, and plastic.

Southern Aluminum will continue to innovate in many ways to better serve our world and our customers because it is who we are and how we conduct business.
