approaching on April 22, US Markerboard, a leading school furniture retailer,
has announced the launch of USMarkerboard-Green.com, a new website stocked with
eco-friendly, high-performance desks, chairs, tables, markerboards and other
classroom furniture. USMarkerboard-Green.com caters to the market for green
school furniture by offering premium products that contain recycled content and
low-emissions materials. As manufacturers develop better and greener products
over time, USMarkerboard-Green.com enables educators and consumers to take the
lead in a growing movement that gains momentum on a daily basis.

more and more consumers want to take the next step and make a meaningful and
immediate impact every day.” says Scott Newman, CEO of US Markerboard.
