Sustainability

We deem it necessary to clearly mention that all of our broad leaf hardwood timbers used are sourced from sustainable managed forests, be it in the uk or mainland Europe.(The only exceptions being oak acquired through compulsory felling orders or an act of god.) At present the majority of this timber used is European, due solely to the fact that it has been  managed responsibly in the past ensuring a plentiful sustainable supply today. The UK now is actively engaged in a sustained well managed replanting programme establishing new forests, maintaining existing ones and removing non native species (conifers, etc) to make way for indigenous traditional hardwoods, at present just 12% of the UK is woodland compared to 44% of Europe on average. This revival being championed on the whole by charitable organisations, the biggest being the Woodland Trust being in existence for nearly four decades now. Our hardwoods and softwoods are obtained from reputable companies, who supply us with either PEFC certified timber (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification schemes) or FSC certified timber (Forest Stewardship Council) both  operate very similar schemes being in essence a paper chain, from forest to customer being proof the timber has been sourced from managed and legitimate sources engaged in "reforestation not deforestation". we are currently working towards our own accredited status from these two bodies.
