RESTON, Va., Feb. 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- In today's modern world, sustainability is at the very heart of everything that we do. As part of KCMA's effort to build a more sustainable future, we developed the Environmental Stewardship Program (ESP) in 2006 and the standard has been updated several times including the recent 2024 edition. The program requires practices that benefit both the environment and our communities.

Key Points: 
  • As part of KCMA's effort to build a more sustainable future, we developed the Environmental Stewardship Program (ESP) in 2006 and the standard has been updated several times including the recent 2024 edition.
  • Recent updates to the ESP program include the use of the KCMA Carbon Calculator to calculate and report their net CO2 emissions.
  • KCMA developed the program to help cabinet manufacturers gain ESP certification through a rigorous process that follows the ESP Guidance Document and ESP 01-24 standard.
  • That is why KCMA developed the Environmental Stewardship Program (ESP) to certify if cabinet manufacturers are producing cabinets in an environmentally friendly way," remarked KCMA CEO Betsy Natz.
