PEFC-certified products continue to be used across a wide range of sectors, not only in the
construction and joinery sectors but the furniture and packaging sectors also continue to expand
the use of PEFC-certified material. The following are a selection of products and organisations
sourcing responsibly and promoting the benefits of using certified material to their customers.
Paper
“We hear on a daily basis the challenges we face environmentally in our fast-paced consumer
world,” said Steve Mulheron, Commercial Director. “At the heart of the Fine Décor DNA,
it is important to us that the product we market as PEFC-certified under the Fine Décor
and Crown brands, with collections such as Milano and Bergamo, are traceable in terms of
sustainability. It means we can ensure our customer understands that both we and they are
helping contribute the creation of a better world for future generations.”
Packaging
To reflect this, many manufacturers are now able to supply the ‘food to go’ sector
with PEFC-labelled, recyclable packaging products that provide visual proof of their
sustainable procurement policy and supply chain objectives.
Macallan Distillery
The Macallan Distillery has quickly become an iconic building,
showcasing engineered wood via the most complex timber
roof structure ever built in the UK. The multi-award winning
project was unveiled by international premium brand drinks
company Edrington in 2018.
The roof is comprised of 1,750 PEFC-certified glulam timber beams, making up a 3x3m grid that carries 2,500 cassettes that
support a natural meadow green roof. It took almost 12 months of work, using collaborative design and bespoke parametric
modelling software, to define the complex geometry, and realise the fluidity of the structure. The timber elements were
manufactured in Austria by Wiehag using high-precision, computer-controlled technology – one of the few companies in the
world capable of this level of engineering.
Furniture
Southsea Deckchairs
The traditional deckchair is a very British seaside staple. The UK’s leading
maker and supplier of traditional timber-framed deckchairs is Southsea
Deckchairs – started by Director and Founder Stephen Davies, when he
began selling deckchairs along Southsea seafront in 1981.
“It is very important that we supply products made from responsibly managed forests. In this day and age, the awareness of
sustainability, in the retail industry especially, has soared and now it is essential as a business to be aware of its impact on
customer preferences. We made the decision to buy PEFC-certified timber in order to reduce the impact on our forests and the
environment. We also wanted to create longer lasting, more durable chairs which needed less frequent replacement. Our chairs
are built to last years if not decades. We’ve been using PEFC-certified timber for six years now and will continue to do so as it
has been successful for us, our customers and most importantly our environment.”
