Going Green
We Are Concerned About the Public Safety
Two years ago we announced the unprecedented goal of screening 100% of our 800 products for toxins and heavy metals. This stringent European standard is called the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive. We pledge to continue this best practice so that our customers can have peace of mind, knowing all of our products are safe for humans.
​
No other American company has shown their concern for public safety with RoHS compliance the way that Baumgartens has. We have qualified and tested thousands of components, mechanical plastics and metals as heavy-metal safe in our products, and we are annually testing and updating our portfolio of safe products.
Community Outreach
We are committed to making a difference in our industry, our community and our world; being able to contribute is something we value.
Baumgartens contributes to the community through its longstanding in-kind contributions to Atlanta’s Dogwood Festival, which raises funds and awareness exclusively for Camp Sunshine in Rutledge, Georgia.
Our Culture
We are a family at Baumgartens and just like any family we have a certain way of doing things and interacting with each other. Our culture is based on a set of core values that we created as a company and are aligned in every aspect of how we interact with each other and with our customers.
