| Upofloor's Environmental Policy |
|
| Conservation of the environment is naturally
of great importance to Upofloor. We make sure that all the wood
used in our floors comes from carefully managed sustainable
forest programmes, both in Finland, where 42% of the total land
is forest, and the other countries where our wood species are
sourced. |
| The production of Real Wood Parquet actually
consumes little energy, and the precision cuttings method used
saves raw material. All waste wood and sawdust is used to heat
the factory and only necessary packaging is used. The durability
of the surface is achieved by using environmentally friendly
materials and methods: - the parquet is given 6 coats of varnish,
then UV-cured. Materials contain no substances that will evaporate
and all products are safe. |
| The objectives of Upofloors environmental
policy: |
| 1. To supply products that
allow customers to make their choice of flooring on an environmentally
sustainable basis. |
| 2. To produce and market
these products with the least possible impact on the environment. |
