Global Surroundings Celebrates 10 Years As Eco-Friendly Furniture Manufacturer.

Fountain Hills, AZ. November 7, 2008 -- Global Surroundings, LLC

Global Surroundings is pleased to announce the 10th anniversary as a manufacturer of eco-friendly reclaimed teak furnishings. “When we started in 1998, we set out to make unique and high-quality furnishings that happened to be made of reclaimed teak wood,” said JL Jackson, Founder of Global Surroundings.

“Over the last several years people have seen the climate changing and they want to do their own part to help minimize the environmental impact of cutting down the rainforest. Using reclaimed wood slows global warming,” said Jackson.

“Although other manufacturers have followed our lead and ventured into the eco-friendly spirit, our products are unique,” said Jackson. “We have the top designs that are incredibly comfortable and most importantly in today’s economy, we provide value and lasting heirloom furniture that can be passed on for generations.”
