USG Corp. has released an expanded brochure that details the company’s commitment to environmentally friendly products and manufacturing processes as well as its long history of environmental responsibility. Entitled Committed to the Environment, the brochure is useful reading for those who are interested in “green” building, the environment and other sustainable design issues. It closely examines the content and manufacturing process for two of USG’s primary product lines and outlines the company’s use of alternative resources. For example, USG’s wallboard cores contain an average of 31 percent recycled content, while its wallboard paper is made with 100 percent recycled materials. USG and USG Interiors plants consume clean fuels whenever possible and recycle water and heat. (800) USG-4YOU www.usg.com
