Timberpeg Partners with Environmentally Responsible SuppliersIt is not enough that Timberpeg practices environmental responsibility within our company, it is also important that our suppliers share the same principles that we do. To learn more about how the different components of your Timberpeg Package meet various environmental standards, visit the below links.

Wood is a Natural, Recyclable, and Renewable ResourceWood is a natural, recyclable and renewable resource. It grows without using artificial energy, and although it must be harvested and transported, the overall use of non-renewable energy is less than concrete or steel. Most of all, wood is a durable building material. With sensible protection from the elements, wood buildings have lasted centuries.

It's reasons like these that in 1994 the Aldo Leopold Nature Center, a non-profit organization whose mission is to "...teach the student to see the land, understand what he sees, and enjoy what he understands" chose Timberpeg and their Independent Representative, Tom Ela, to design their nature center.

Douglas fir and eastern white pine timbers are available certified for chain-of-custody as coming from well-managed forests adhering to strict environmental and socioeconomic standards in accordance with the principles and criteria of the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). Paper used to print marketing materials and floor plans is also FSC certified. "The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) promotes environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial and economically viable management of the world's forests." |

Reduce and ReuseCut-offs from our manufacturing process are recycled locally, and made available at no cost to people who use them for fuel and a variety of crafts and other projects. The sawdust from the process is provided free to local farmers. Metal strapping and other materials are gathered and recycled. Our tools are cleaned with citrus-based cleaners that won't harm the environment, and most of our shops' trucks and forklifts are powered with biodiesel fuel.
Built-In Energy SavingsAll Timberpeg homes are energy efficient, with a continuous insulation system and high-quality millwork. With structural insulated panels, you can expect a substantial reduction in energy needs compared to those of a conventionally built home. For additional information, read an editorial which Timberpeg has permission to duplicate and distribute. It appeared in Wood Design & Building, Summer 2004 issue. It provides results of a comparison of the life-cycle environmental impact of three, duplicate buildings constructed of steel, concrete and wood. |
