We all have a responsibility to protect the environment and the societies in countries of origin for all of the lumber products we use.

Our priority is a sustainable,

ethical woodworking practice.

Our commitment:

  • We only ever use FSC-certified exotic hardwood

  • All of our African Mahogany comes from local Swaner Hardwoods, who imports from Samartex, an ethical, FSC-certified lumber company in Ghana, who funds schools, hospitals and roads for its local community.

  • We are a proud partner with Rubio Monocoat, plant-based, zero-VOC low emission finishes and stains. We use organic oils & zero-VOC finishes whenever possible.

  • Proper storage and disposal of all hazardous waste materials

  • Reuse of lumber scrap whenever possible for filler, mulch, demo projects and experiments.

  • Separation and proper green disposal of scrap lumber at all times.
