Green Features of decking
tiles. Yes, hardwood products can be green.
Sustainable woods we use and the programs we support. All of our
hardwoods are purchased through certified sustainable forestry programs.
These programs are important for sustainable forestry to coexist with the
hardwood lumber market. The hardwood we buy to make our decking tiles
provide critical financial assistance and incentive to landowners who would
normally sell land for agriculture. Agriculture is the #1 killer of the rain
forest. The value of sustain-ability is recognized in these programs for
future economic resources.
Our product is portable and re-usable. Products that are re-usable
are green. This is a term used for materials that do not go to dump once
used but rather can be picked up and used elsewhere. This not only
protects your investment in the material but ensures future use of the
material in another living space in the future. A simple coat of oil and the
tiles will look new, no environmentally damaging treatments need be
applied.
Deck tiles install over existing surfaces. Another important green
feature as most materials require demolition or removal of a previous
material. Traditional decking and building fills our landfills with concrete
and chemically treated wood.
The use of "shorts". The Deck tiles use the "shorts" of the wood industry
which are pieces typically discarded from the furniture and decking industry
are utilized to make our products. This maximizes the use of the wood and
makes sure none of it goes to waste. Traditionally much of the shorts are
burnt to make hardwood charcoal and then sold on the open market. We
would rather buy this quality wood and use them to make our beautiful deck
tiles.
Certification documentation or more information for our certified hardwoods
can be provided upon request.
