Greetings!
Up until recently, the concept of being eco-friendly, or "green" wasn't on our radar as something that we should pursue here at Starrco. It's not that we do not feel it is important, it is. It's not something that we feel is a "trend" and will go away, it won't. But what we realized when we looked into this concept made us proud of our company, our industry, and our contribution to the environment. Read the "Bein' Green" article, below, to see how Starrco really "rocks" being green. Not only that, but we've been doing it since 1965! |

When it comes to being green, you can be assured that Starrco products are an eco-friendly choice. So kick back, hug some trees, and compare us to stick built:
We sacrifice no trees. None are being cut down to put up our product, because space is created within existing structures.
The gypsum board we use for our product features 95% post-consumer materials, with the paper facing being 100% recycled material. Our aluminum framework consists of 70% reclaimed or scrap material...aluminum is a completely recyclable material with less than 2% of the total volume lost in the re-melting process. Better yet, when it's time to expand or modify your space, Starrco products are designed to be reconfigured, making no contribution to landfills whatsoever.
Our carbon footprint is minimal. Even if shipping our product from the midwest all the way to the west coast, emmissions are dramatically less than compared to shipping lumber, steel, and other materials required for permanent construction.
All this, and being green is just a small part of the benefits of Starrco's Modular Construction! |
| Is It Getting Hot in Here? |
Starrco offers several options when it comes to providing climate control for our office systems and pre-assembled buildings. For smaller in-plant offices and pre-assembled buildings we offer a Thru-Wall air conditioner or air conditioner/heater combination unit. For modular offices larger than 800 square feet we offer our modular HVAC, which can be installed by anyone. To learn more about our cooling systems, click here. |

While being interviewed for a job, the personnel manager said to the Maguire brothers:
'We're going to give you a written examination. Ten questions. Whoever gets most right we'll hire.'
Papers were produced and the boys set to work answering the general knowledge questions. When the time was up the personnel manager collected and marked the papers.
'Well,' said he, 'you've both got nine out of ten, but I'm giving Mick the job.'
'Why's that?' asked Pat.
'Well,' said the manager, 'you both got the same question wrong but he had 'I don't know this' and you had 'Neither do I!'. |

| Thought for the Day |
If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant; if we did not sometimes taste adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.
