Guides and news
Certification, LEED and responsible forestry
We are actively sourcing reclaimed, sustainable and environmentally conscious materials. That is why many Reclaimed Woods materials qualify for use in LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) projects.
FSC and PEFC
Responsible forest management
We support international non-governmental organisations that promote environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial and economically viable management of the world’s forests. Through consultative processes they set international standards for responsible forest management and evaluate forestry operations against strict principles and criteria. If an operation complies, a certificate recognises that it supports responsible forest management, and chain of custody is tracked so certified material is never mixed with uncertified stock. We are members of PEFC, the Pan-European Forest Council, the counterpart of the FSC.

Who we are
One of the largest green flooring suppliers
With locations in Asia, Europe and the United States, we are one of the largest single suppliers of green wood flooring and a major LEED producer, stocking solid and engineered wood in over 63 species and veneer in over 203.
chain of custody
Certified, and kept separate
If an organization is determined to be in compliance, a certificate is issued recognizing that the company supports the growth of responsible forest management. The chain-of-custody is carefully tracked to ensure that certified materials are never mixed with those that are not, guaranteeing that the end consumer receives products that originated from certified, well-managed forests and forestry operations.
