The Earth loses forests half the size of England each year, says National Geographic. Demand for wood encourages illegal logging, which cuts deeper into the virgin forest each year, destroying tropical forests and wildlife habitats – and the wood is transported across the globe.
I am committed to using salvaged British wood, most of it from London. Salvaged wood comes from trees that have died, fallen or are being removed for a building, motorway or railway – in this case, HS2. Salvaged wood is in its natural state and hasn’t already been cut into lumber. Turning salvaged wood into furniture diverts it from landfill and reduces demand for logging or tree farms. Salvaged wood tends to come from older trees, so it’s harder and stronger than young wood, with more character too: deep, rich colors and beautifully intricate wood grain, often with knots or whorls. Salvaged wood is better quality than reclaimed wood, which comes from old buildings or barns and may have damage from nails, insects or exposure.
