Eco-friendly, fair trade furniture

Beautifully designed furniture made from sustainable sources and recycled materials. Different and stylish without harming the environment. Always remember to choose wood that has been certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). This will guarantee that the timber used in your furniture comes from a well-managed forest.

Recycling timber is a practice that was popularised in the early 1990s as issues such as deforestation and climate change, prompted both timber suppliers and consumers to turn to a more sustainable timber source.

"The struggle to save the global environment is in one way much more difficult than the struggle to vanquish Hitler, for this time the war is with ourselves. We are the enemy, just as we have only ourselves as allies." - Al Gore

  Reviews and feedback

SOTO - "Proceed with caution when dealing with this company. I ordered items from them that were poor quality - I returned them the next day and spent 5 weeks trying to get a refund. Very unprofessional - say sent cheque when didn't. Finally only sent refund when threatened with small claims court."
