We are sourcing and selling F.S.C. Certified wood flooring.
Currently over a third of all our wood flooring is F.S.C. Certified and as we increase the pressure with our manufacturers we hope that in a relatively short time, all of the wood flooring that Town & Country Flooring sell, will carry the F.S.C. Certification.

WHY BUY F.S.C OR P.E.F.C CERTIFIED WOOD FLOORING?

RESPONSIBLY SOURCED WOODEN FLOORING
The global environment is threatened by mankind. Our activities change the climate, contaminate the land, pollute the air, and destroy other species which have an equal right to exist.

CHOOSING TO BUY RESPONSIBLY SOURCED WOODEN FLOORING CAN HELP TO:-

l•lock away carbon in a product that has a long life and is completelyrecyclable
• avoid chemical pollutants emitted by other flooring
• help other species by responsible management of their environment

Many of the world's ecosystems are given structure and protection by trees. Simply put - no trees, no ecosystem.
One of the best ways to conserve trees is to responsibly manage their habitat, protect what we have, and bring back what we have lost.
Ironically, the responsible management of trees includes cutting them down. The important thing is that this is done with minimum damage to the environment, whilst helping local people to see the profitability of protecting their native habitat and planting more trees. Without this economic carrot, trees are robbed from the land for a quick profit or burnt for landlords to raise beef stock.
So, when you buy responsibly sourced wooden flooring, certified by an independent Forest Certification scheme, you know that you are helping to protect the world's trees.
