Go Green with Aurora

Aurora is committed to the long-term preservation of our environment. For over a decade, the company has actively pursued a policy of sustainability and environmental sensitivity. Long before the formation of the US Green Building movement, Aurora participated in conservation programs and has a history of protecting the environment in both manufacturing operations and our general facilities.

Environmentally Friendly Products

Aurora's brands including Aurora Quik-Lok Shelving, Side to Side, Aurora Mobile, and Times-2™, are by nature environmentally friendly. These products contain high levels of recycled and recyclable material. Steel used in the manufacturing of Aurora products contains 35.7% recycled content from post-consumer and post-industrial sources.

Limited lifetime product warranties confirm the company's pledge to manufacture long-lasting products of premium quality.

Product packaging employs bulk pack techniques to minimize the use of corrugated and wood supports. All corrugated material includes 20% recycled content. Corrugated and wood supports used for shipping are recycled, and can be removed from job site to a recycling facility.
