When choosing sustainable products and materials for your home, quality and longevity should not be sacrificed. By definition, the word “sustainable” refers to something that is maintained at a higher level and this principle should apply to the flooring you choose.

Having become more aware of the impact we have on the ecosystem, people around the world are becoming more environmentally conscious. We are now striving to lead greener lives that leave minimal carbon footprints. Of the numerous steps taken and the changes implemented in a bid to save the environment, on of the lesser talked about topics is the use of Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified wood. FSC is an international non-profit organization promoting responsible managing of the world’s forests. Sustainable wood should carry the seal of FSC, which insures the forests are regrown, biodiversity is preserved, an air and water quality are protected. That non-profit stamp of approval indicates forests operations met 57 criteria, ranging from protecting local wildlife to minimizing the use of toxic elements. FSC wood does not come from clear-cutting practices, which have a disastrous effect on the climate.
