Eco-Friendly Decking
At the Ipe Decking Company, we are dedicated to providing eco-savvy consumers premium grade ipe hardwood decking. Every board you purchase was sustainably harvested and cultivated with the modern forestry practices. When you purchase lumber that came from a managed forest, you are ensuring that there are always new trees available to replace the ones that have been cultivated.
Land that was just clear cut & burned for cattle ranching.
How can hardwood be considered eco-friendly? Simply put, when you purchase real decking, you are ensuring that the land is not clear cut and burned for agricultural use. Cattle ranching, bean farming, and coffee plantations are just some of the products that inspire land owners to cut down their land and sell to the highest bidder. When the land is more valuable for selective logging, the overall environment benefits. The alternative of having no forest land at all should give us all pause. Here are some interesting facts, currently, agriculture and cattle ranching account for over 80% of the deforestation in the Amazon. Logging? Just 3%. With that fact in mind, can you see how choosing hardwood is actually a responsible choice?
As a FSC wood supplier, we are also able to sell certified wood decking products. Having this certification will help any green building project that is seeking LEED certification. How? We can and will provide you with our FSC certificate, so you can qualify for MRc7 and/or MRc5 LEED credits right away. Call us for more details.
