GarageTek has specifically engineered products that ensure your family is not exposed to polluted air that can cause sickness.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>ProTek floor coatings<\/strong> are zero VOC (volatile organic compounds). Most other floor coatings do not make this commitment since it increases the product costs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>TekPanel, cabinets and floor tiles<\/strong> have zero out gassing which can be an issue for people with allergies. PVC window blinds, electrical wiring and shower curtains are typical examples of products which continue to out gas.<\/li>\n<li><strong>All painted products<\/strong> are powder coated which avoids adding solvents into the air with spray paint. With our coating, 100% solid paint pigments are electrically charged and attached to the part being painted. The item is then baked so the finish is very hard and durable.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>CONTRIBUTING TO A SAFE, HEALTHY HOME<\/h2>\n<p>The garage can have hidden dangers.\u00a0 Not with GarageTek.\u00a0<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong style=\"line-height: 1.5;\">TekPanel<\/strong><span style=\"line-height: 1.5;\">, the backbone of the GarageTek system, is UL rated for both fire and strength to ensure family safety.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>Floor tiles and coatings<\/strong> are slip resistant to avoid the most common garage accident. Also, the mold resistance of the tiles ensures a clean garage floor for years to come.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lighting systems<\/strong> provide needed visibility in work areas and entry ways. In addition, GarageTek lighting units are UL certified to meet electrical appliance standards for construction and safety.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>CONSERVING THE WORLD&#8217;S NATURAL RESOURCES<\/h2>\n<p>GarageTek products are packaged to have a minimal impact on the environment. First, our bulk, master packing is done to minimize the total amount of required packaging.\u00a0 In addition, as an installed system there is no need to use wasteful consumer oriented multi colored printed graphics on the packaging as used in a retail store.<\/p>\n<h2>COMMITTING TO EFFECTIVE RECYCLING<\/h2>\n<p>Adding recycled products can some times impact the integrity and durability of a manufactured product.\u00a0 To meet our superior standards for consumer safety, all of our plastic components are virgin PVC without \u201creclaimed\u201d materials which may have toxic compounds. \u00a0\u00a0That is why all GarageTek products can be recycled without the concern of putting toxic materials back into the production cycle or environment.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GarageTek is a Green Company GarageTek is dedicated to family safety in every aspect of its global operations.\u00a0 From product development through installation and the 5 year warranty, we implement environmentally sound practices and policies.\u00a0 Rely on GarageTek for a clean, safe and organized garage.
