Environmental considerations
Timber is an environment-friendly material and we do all we can to produce timber products in a way that adds to that benefit by limiting the environmental footprint of harvesting, processing and delivery. So all our round timber is sourced from well managed forests which means that young saplings are planted as mature trees are felled.
Using locally-grown wood we minimise haulage and we do all we can to make our haulage operation as efficient as we can to keep our carbon ‘footprint’ as small as it can possibly be.
And lastly there’s the preservative we use, TANALITH® E. It contains copper from recycled sources and triazoles that are biodegradable, which means that they don’t persist in the environment. Find out more.
