With their modern range of FSC approved teak and hardwood garden furniture, Nova have proved that style and environmental friendliness can go hand in hand.
The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) is an independent non-governmental international organization that brings people together to find solutions which promote responsible stewardship of the world’s forests.
Founded in 1993, the FSC certifies over 90 million hectares in more than 70 countries. A diverse group of representatives are involved from environmental and social groups, the timber trade and the forestry profession, indigenous people’s organisations, responsible corporations and community forestry groups.
Buying FSC approved products benefits all parties involved. Customers receive top grade wood products, making a conscious effort to promote and protect the environment. Nova are protecting their raw materials, maintaining hardwood forests and more recently teak plantations which are in short supply. And as the FSC grows in stature, responsible forest management is encouraged.
It certainly is refreshing that in a profit-orientated market Nova have made it a policy to encourage the forests from which their timber is sourced to adopt a responsible environmental policy. It’s a policy which Nova are committed to as they seek to have all their wood products endorsed by the FSC.
Whether you’re sitting around a Henley table or enjoying a glass of wine in your Richmond recliners you can be rest assured not only have you got a quality product but you’ve also done your bit for the environment.
