Commitment to Sustainability

Verta, Inc. illustrates our commitment to sustainability through action. We are proud to be the first applicator of high-performance architectural coatings with a completely chrome-free pre-treat process. Our commitment to continuous improvement in sustainable operations reduces our company’s environmental impact throughout our operations.

Our state-of-the art facility and paint line feature high-efficiency ovens that use a fraction of the energy of traditional ovens. Verta’s wash system uses rainwater captured from our roof for our wash process reducing the amount of processing required to prepare water for the system. Water is filtered and recycled multiple times through the five-stage wash process, minimizing the fresh rainwater required to fill the system. We built our facility to be ready to accept photovoltaic panels in the future.

Verta is committed to sustainable practices on all of the projects in which we participate, not just on those that require it. By using bio-based reducers and chrome-free primers, we are significantly reducing the amount of hazardous materials in our process. We also offer selecting Sherwin-Williams Fluropon® Pure line of coatings. These coatings are formulated with material transparency and environmental impacts in mind. Fluropon Pure coatings offer opportunities to comply with material disclosure and optimization credits in LEED®.  Thousands of custom-matched colors are available in this formulation.
