| We at Northwood Trading
recognise that the company has a responsibility to
the environment, customers, suppliers and staff, to
base its commercial activities on well-managed forests.
A common mistaken belief is that hardwood is bad for
the environment. In fact alternatives such as carpets
use more energy, release more carbon dioxide and waste
products than wood.
This is what the Association of Environment
Conscious Builders have to say: "Consider
materials that are natural and from a renewable resource.
Choose materials that have a low embodied energy and
are not polluting in their manufacture, use or disposal".
Our company is committed to buying all timber from
sustainable sources suppliers operating in accordance
with the laws of their country.
