Being Green With Your Wooden Products
Sustainability is everything in this era. We have been using
wood to construct and build for hundreds of years. It’s a marvellous building
product and it’s degradable, reusable and works as an effective insulator.
Sourcing a sustainable source for doors isn’t difficult and
it has its benefits. This can also help your products sell too. For example, let’s
say you made this brand new door from renewable, sustainable, local materials.
You would be able to pitch to you target audience and the customers showing
them that it’s not all about the money and you do care for our planet and
environment. Look at it this way; you would be able to tell them the materials
used to build the door were locally sourced saving on delivery costs and carbon
emissions. You would then also be able to tell them the wood used was from a
sustainable source meaning the environment benefits from this.
How Do I Know It's Sustainable?
The aim is to give back what is taken. The general practice
of a sustainable forest is for every 1 tree they cut down, they plant 3 more to
replace it. They also take great care to protect the local wildlife while
ensuring minimum impact. It is very important we support the sustainability of
wood as it keeps a fresh supply of what we need and doesn’t affect the
environment, if anything its better off right?
Forest Stewardship
Council are a non-government organisation dedicated to promoting the
responsible management of the world’s forests. They run a certification system
which, when award give the company the right to use the Forest Stewardship
Council (FSC) mark showing consumers that the products are sourced responsibly
and sustainably which then allows consumers to correctly identify sustainable forest
products.
Take Open Door Centre Warrington for example. They take
pride in using sustainable, renewable materials in their doors. Yes it may be a
little bit of extra work to source sustainable materials compared to
non-sustainable ones but they take pride in making quality products with
minimum impact to our environment, our planet.
