Putting sustainable forestry in everyone's hands

There are serious threats facing the world's forests today. But we're seriously optimistic we can reduce the risks together, with our new way to think about sustainable resources.

Stopping deforestation in its tracks

80%

of the world's original forests have been destroyed.¹ We work every day to restore them and for every tree we cut in our forests, we plant three more.

Reducing the pressure for resources

21%

of greenhouse gas emissions come from producing plastic, steel and cement.² Our quality timber is a sustainable alternative that looks much nicer too!

Joining the fight against climate change

11%

of global greenhouse emissions that drive climate change are a result of deforestation.³ Our verified carbon capture calculations show how our trees reduce that impact.

Protecting the forest's plants and animals

60%

of the planet's land animals have been wiped out since 1970.⁴ Forests are home to 80% of those that are left. ⁵ We create vital space and shelter for biodiversity to thrive.

No clearcutting, thank you very much. Selective cuts only.

biodiversity

We love biodiversity. Plants and animals are at the heart of what we do.

monoculture

Down with monoculture. Long live mixed forests!

chemicals

No chemicals. (Obviously.)

carbon

Offsetting is so 1970s. We capture carbon to reduce footprints.

timber

We produce sustainable timber. It's better for the environment than other materials.

No messing with exotic species. It's bad for the forest's natural balance.

time

We give your trees the time they need to act as carbon sinks for the planet.

protection

We're contributing to the preservation and protection of Europe's forests.

forest

We get our hands dirty with wild initiatives, for the forest and local community.

Our foresters work in every forest alongside external, local forestry experts.
