“Fast Delivery! Packaged Great!”

Shipped the day after I ordered, received in another 5 days. 1 week delivery, excellent service! Box was very sturdy for 4 gallons of Safe Choice Super Clean. Not just the regular flimsy cardboard box that would have busted with the weight.

“Not entirely trustworthy”

David R.
5/25/20

While I appreciate that this company stocks some safer alternatives, I found dealing with them to be disappointing. I ordered some flooring samples and when they arrived I noticed a chemical odor. I contacted them about this and received a vague, general reply. When I asked more specific questions I received no further response. I tried two different people at the company with the same results. As a result I don't trust this company and I wouldn't buy anything from them without doing my own research

The samples came quickly, accompanied by a booklet with lots of information about how to install and care for a Marmoleum Click Cinch Loc floor.

I ordered a sample to do a small job. Low smell. Came with instructions and was delivered quickly.

From the business

Green Building Supply is a one-stop-shop for all your natural and eco-friendly home building products. On our website greenbuildingsupply.com you can effortlessly browse through hundreds of natural and non-toxic products — everything is well-organized and clearly defined with MSDS sheets on the contents of most products, reviews, spec sheets, maintenance and installation guidelines, and tips and tricks on testing for chemical sensitivity, working with green products, and much much more!

Business History

As a family owned company, we started in search of natural and non-toxic building materials to use in our own home. Our home is inspired by Frank Lloyd Wrights prairie style, as well as the ancient principles of Vedic Architecture.

In a small Iowa town, it was almost impossible to find products locally that satisfied our craving for natural beauty. Also in 1991 there was no internet, very few magazines, and scant interest in green building products.

We traveled around the US to locate beautiful natural products. Getting reliable information about the content of various products was the most challenging task; as at the time few manufacturers knew what would trigger chemical sensitivity in their products, or the impact their products would have on the health of the home owner and the environment.

Eventually we put all the pieces together and as natural healthy homes came into demand we were inspired to create a store to make these products easily available to others. Our first customers were our friends, many of them out of state, and some of them chemically sensitive. So far, we've helped thousands of people create new healthy homes, and we are educating more and more every day.
