About the Event
Merima Böhler (International Projects) walks through what "responsible sourcing" means in practice: a wood mix that's now 54% post-consumer recycled — ahead of their own target — with every board FSC and PEFC certified, traceable to controlled sources since 2007. On the surface side, their boards carry the Blue Angel mark for low-emission manufacturing, with roughly half the formaldehyde of a standard board.
It's the case for treating sourcing and surface as one decision, not two.
