Certified Timber

Certified Timber

All of the timber for our windows and doors is sourced through the FSC® and PEFC timber certification schemes.

These schemes ensure that the sources of the timber are well managed and sustainable. We are fully certified with both schemes (see certificate links below) and we are able to provide a certificate for a specific order if required.

For timber to be certified as FSC or PEFC, the timber must originate from a forest that has been assessed against a number of social, economic and environmental criteria before being certified as meeting the requirements. It then has to demonstrate a Chain of Custody throughout the supply chain, which puts administration processes and external auditing in to guarantee the timber is certified.

Forest Stewardship Council (FSC)

FSC

The FSC is an international, non-governmental organisation dedicated to promoting responsible management of the world’s forests. The FSC “tick tree” logo is used on product labels to indicate whether products are certified under the FSC system.

The FSC runs a global forest certification system with two key components; Forest Management and Chain of Custody certification. This system allows consumers to identify, purchase and use timber and forest products produced from well-managed forests.

The timber used in the production of our windows and doors and all of the paper used to print our company and product brochures is FSC approved.

Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC)

PEFC

The PEFC is an international non-profit, non-governmental organisation dedicated to promoting sustainable forest management through independent third party certification.

The PEFC works throughout the entire forest supply chain to promote good practice in the forest and to ensure that timber and non-timber forest products are produced with respect for the highest ecological, social and ethical standards.

Due to the PEFC logo (shown above) customers are able to identify products from sustainably managed forests.

“All timber is approved by either FSC or PEFC bodies and is selected for its outstanding performance and environmental credentials. We are accredited by both bodies and can offer complete certification if required.”
