2 Peple care abut the envirnment Trees and wd play a majr rll

3 Peple in Eurpe and the Nrth America say Wd is an extrardinary material Naturally renewable, it grws in ever-increasing abundance in Eurpe and Nrth America It is beautiful, light, and strng t build with It is warm and welcming t live with

4 Wd ffers a simple way t reduce carbn dixide emissins thrugh The carbn sink effect f the frests The carbn strage effect f wd prducts Substitutin fr carbn-intensive materials Less energy t prduce needed prducts The envirnmental arguments fr using wd are a majr plus in Green Huse Building Systems that we will discuss

38 Vintage Timberwrks In the fall f 2008 Vintage received recgnitin fr ur cmplete line f reclaimed wd prducts by the Frest Stewardship Cuncil. The FSC has classified ur prducts 100% recycled cntent. Althugh we have been prviding ur recycled prducts fr ver 20 years, (lnger than bth the FSC and US Green Building Cuncil have been arund), it is great t nw have an independent rganizatin certify ur prducts as such. Mre infrmatin regarding FSC can be fund at: FSC COO 3112 Chain f Custdy certificatin NWPCA Dallas Cnf

39 FSC Recycled Label Why is there an FSC recycled label? The FSC Recycled label was intrduced in rder t recgnize the imprtant rle that recycling paper and timber plays in prtecting the wrld s frests. Reclaimed materials can als be used in prducts carrying the FSC Mix label but nly prducts cntaining 100% recycled material can carry the FSC Recycled label. NWPCA Dallas Cnf

42 Elmwd Reclaimed Timber Nw FSC Prducts (their wrds) It's fficial - We Are FSC Certified! Are we green yet? Turns ut we always were. But nw it's fficial. Our entire antique line was recently awarded the Frest Stewardship Cuncil designatin, and we didn't have t strain t meet the cnditins fr it. As it turns ut, we were ding things the right way frm the beginning. That means lw eclgical impact all the way frm the surce t the finished building just as we, and the FSC intended.
