from sustainably managed forests

Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) or Forest Stewardship Council
(FSC) systems managed by global independent organisations.

every tree harvested, 3 trees are planted.

CANADA’S HERITAGE: YELLOW-CEDAR
• Yellow-Cedar from B.C., Canada is a certified
wood from sustainably managed forests, matured
over 100 years before it is harvested.
• Known for its natural resistance to termites, decay
and insects, this wood is suitable for both interior
and exterior applications.
• Exceptional longevity, superior working properties
and sustainability in harsh and varying climatic
conditions are the species hallmark.
• Aesthetically appealing, featuring smooth and fine
texture, yellow-cedar is also perfect for
handicrafts i.e. carving and turning.
