No Greenwashing Here:

What makes TGS a green studio?

Tim Gaudreau Studios considers all aspects of business, from fabrication to fulfillment to result in the most sustainable, lowest impact possible. Our commitment to sustainablilty has been in place for over a decade and guided our our early adoption of digital technologies.

A sustainable lifestyle and business model means many things. We make considerate choices in raw materials to reduce VOC's, hazardous chemicals, packaging and pollution. Our new studio is designed to reduce energy consumption and our business CO2 footprint.

What are some examples?

In our effort to be green, here are just a few highlights:

We have re-purposed an old barn into a green studio at Tim's home reducing his daily commute to 0.

Our studio is heated from wood pellet biomass and passive solar from windows, thermal mass and air heaters.

Tim's home is entirely heated by wood.

Our vehicles run on 100% soybean oil/Biodiesel and get nearly 50 mpg.

We grow the majority of our own food.

All work stations are task-focused and compact fluorescent lit, reducing unneeded electricity consumption.

We compost the majority of our waste.

We chose natural, organic and sustainably harvested/manufactured goods.
