Beautiful Furniture Needn’t Cost the Earth at Furniture 123

PRESS RELEASE

As the world gets smaller and customers expectations get greater a delicate balancing act is needed to ensure cheap furniture today doesn’t cost the environment tomorrow. Furniture 123 knows that discerning customers will ask questions about the origins of furniture, especially wooden furniture. This is why it works to ensure its suppliers use sustainable materials from reputable sources.

The teak and mahogany used in Pavilion Rattan products are from a Perum Perhutani managed source on the Indonesian island of Java. Perum Perhutani is the government department who now own and manage the plantations: they have a strict policy regarding replanting and the size and quantity of trees felled each year, and this ensures a continued supply of these valuable timbers.

Christian Harold, the maker of the Ardennes range, understands that being presented with a tree is both a privilege and a huge responsibility. The company responds to this in two ways. Firstly, it ensures that for every tree used, it replants two trees in return. Secondly, it creates something of real beauty that can be cherished for many years to come.
