Sustainability

Energy Star

Our company was founded in 1948. We've succeeded in serving Dallas because of our long-term view. Today, part of that view includes our supreme interest in sustainability, a fancy term used loosely by many people today. For us, sustainability means taking a responsibility for our impact on the world's environment and energy.

At Kellum we view this as an important opportunity for the future of our business, our community and our world. We want to seize the opportunity to become a better company by more closely examining every facet of our business.

Our environmental goals are to provide products that are energy-efficient and resource-friendly. Toward that end we embrace the efforts of Energy Star and other programs designed to educate and influence efforts toward sustainability. Whether it's a dishwasher that uses less water, or a refrigerator that uses less electricity, or a flat-panel TV that uses less energy - we're interested in providing the best performing products that put less strain on our environment.

Our goals also include our business practices. It includes routing our deliveries more efficiently so we burn less fuel. It includes proper and efficient handling of packing materials when we uncrate merchandise. It includes the proper handling and disposal of older products we're asked to haul away from our customers' homes. We're mindful of the impact we have on our environment and are constantly seeking to lower that impact.

All the steps we take to make ourselves more efficient and more responsible translate into being a better member of our community. Community has always been important to Kellum. That's as it should be. After all, we live here, we work here, and we play here.

We are committed to learn more and do more to help sustain the world. It's an urgency we feel since we're providing products that people use every day. Today, Kellum is striving to give our customers the best service possible. We're also working to give the world our best!
