Certifications

Dedicated to superior service & quality

We have chosen the following certifications and partnerships partially based on customer and industry requirements, but also reputable accreditations that we believe in and want to lead the way with.

Some of the certifications attribute something to our sustainability journey as they provide opportunities to continually improve, to protect the environment, and offer a level of confirmation of our excellent standards to our customers.

FSC®

Forest Stewardship Council® has a mission to improve global forest management. As a furniture manufacturer, we understand the importance of sustainable forestry. All timber used in products complies with the UK and EU Timber Regulations to ensure no illegal logging involvement. We don’t want to just stop there, though, which is why we have obtained the FSC certification, to ensure that we are contributing to global sustainable forest management and active biodiversity replanting schemes.

ISO 14001

The international standard for environmental management, ISO 14001, was launched in 1996 by The International Organization for Standardization (ISO). ISO is a cooperation between 153 national institutes of standards and is the world’s leading environmental management standard. The standard was last updated in 2004.

With a certified ISO 14001 environmental management system, the company can document that its processes, activities, and qualifications focus on minimising the external environmental impacts. The standard therefore requires/demands that the company commits itself to:

  • Conforming with environmental legislations

  • Constantly improving their environmental actions

The standard hereafter describes the elements in a management system which will enable the company to meet these obligations:

  • Environmental policies
  • Planning
  • Implementation and operation
  • Control and corrective actions
  • Managerial audit
