FSC Certified:
Being part of the solution
2013 marks ten years since the
Forest Stewardship CouncilĀ® (FSC)
was founded in Toronto, Canada. The
organization's objective was to establish
an independent, international forest
certification scheme dedicated to
promoting responsible forestry practices. Ten years
on, FSC has become a global brand and the familiar
FSC logo can be found on thousands of
wood and paper based products around the world.
Kentwood began manufacturing FSC Certified
products in 2007, primarily as custom made
products for multi-unit residential projects being built
to meet green building standards like the
LEED program.
As supplies of certified material became more
available, Kentwood began manufacturing FSC
Certified products for its standard product offering.
Today Kentwood offers dozens of FSC Certified
options in many different product categories and
continues to expand its selection of FSC Certified
hardwood flooring.
For customers looking for an environmentally
responsible flooring choice, FSC Certified products
from Kentwood represent a beautiful way to be 'part
of the solution'. For more information on the Forest
Stewardship Council, please visit www.fsc.org.
Kentwood's FSC Certified products are manufactured and distributed
under licence code FSC-C018382.
