Save A Sample! is a non-profit nationwide recycling drive helping designers donate unused samples to local design schools—keeping the materials from alternatively going into landfills. Through their initiatives, design firms, furniture dealers, and manufacturers are brought together each year to benefit design schools and give talented students a much richer set of resources.
This year, Formica North America will be Save A Sample!’s National Gold Sponsor for the 20th year anniversary of the organization. “As a global leader in design and manufacturing, we also recognize the important role we play as the environmental steward,” says Amy Gath, VP of marketing at Formica North America. “We are proud to continue our partnership with Save A Sample! To ensure that unused samples get into the hands of future architects and designers.”
