We are only a small part of the greater whole on this planet, yet we contribute more waste than any & all of the other parts put together!
We have become victims of excess, & the planet is now paying for it.
The time has come for us to reconsider how we go about our daily lives, & how our actions affect others on a global level.
The buzzwords these days are Recycle, Reduce, Replenish, & as a company we are looking at ways to do this.
For a start, we source our timber from responsible forestry resources, & are members of the FSC (Forestry Stewardship Council)
 The Council's stated mission is "to promote environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial and economically viable management of the world's forests".
The Council's stated mission is "to promote environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial and economically viable management of the world's forests".As discussed in a previous post, we are also looking at using other materials like engineered or reformed bamboo, to construct some of our products
Bamboo is a far more eco friendly product, & another benefit of it, is that it is stronger than pine, denser & more resistant to insect attack & rot.
We are currently doing a complete audit on our manufacturing processes & factory management, & it is our intention to have this completed shortly. We want to be thorough, & not just pay lip service to the idea. We need to ensure that all our staff buy into the concept, & understand the ramifications of their actions.
