At CarmoWood, we believe that working with wood means working with nature. This connection requires respect, responsibility and a vision for the future.<\/p>\n\n<p>We believe in doing good: creating highly functional and durable products without neglecting the ecosystem. Sustainability is not just a nice word, it is our way of being in the world. It is the basis of everything we do. <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kobu-custom-blocks-responsive-spacer responsive-spacer size-large\"><\/div><br>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">HERE ARE OUR PRINCIPLES <\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">I. Sustainable Forest Management <\/h3>\n\n<p>We take care of forests with rigour and international certification (such as FSC), ensuring the replacement of trees and respect for biodiversity and natural cycles. We manage the pine forest so that productivity goes hand in hand with forest regeneration. We do not cut or destroy \u2013 we thin! We reforest! And we mitigate the risk of fire.<\/p>\n\n<p>By using selective thinning methods, we remove only the best quality raw material from the forest for the intended product, ensuring that future generations of trees grow healthy and with even more potential for creating new wood products!<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kobu-custom-blocks-responsive-spacer responsive-spacer size-medium\"><\/div><br>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">II. Innovation and Efficiency <\/h3>\n\n<p>Every Carmo production process is based on the principle of circular economy and protection of wood quality. We invest in technology to reduce waste, increase efficiency and create durable products that value wood as a renewable resource. <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kobu-custom-blocks-responsive-spacer responsive-spacer size-medium\"><\/div><br>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">III. Commitment to Communities <\/h3>\n\n<p>The people who live near our forests are part of our history. We create jobs and promote projects that improve lives and respect the environment.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kobu-custom-blocks-responsive-spacer responsive-spacer size-medium\"><\/div><br>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">IV. Carbon sequestration<\/h3>\n\n<p>\u201cIt can also be seen that, in terms of global warming potential, the balance of total CO2 eq. emissions is negative, due to the carbon sink associated with the extraction of pine and white wood.\u201d (ECO WOOD FURNITURE 4.0 AXIS \u2013 ECO-INNOVATION, Life Cycle Analysis Report, A. Milne Carmo, Varas Curtas, January 2022 \u2013 Association of Wood and Furniture Industries of Portugal.) This paragraph is taken from the life cycle analysis study of one of Carmo&#8217;s many wood products, by AIMMP.<\/p>\n\n<p>The environmental impact of Carmo products is positive, as the CO\u2082 equivalent emissions balance is negative, thanks to the carbon sequestration provided by the controlled extraction of pine wood.<\/p>\n\n<p>This result shows that by choosing CarmoWood solutions, customers are actively contributing to climate change mitigation, supporting a company that transforms nature with respect and gives back more than it takes.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kobu-custom-blocks-responsive-spacer responsive-spacer size-medium\"><\/div><br>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">V. Commitment to the Customer <\/h3>\n\n<p>CarmoWood is a company specialising in treated wood. It uses solar energy in its factories, recycles waste, has PEFC certification for sustainable forest management and continuously invests in innovation to offer durable and environmentally responsible products to customers in more than 40 countries, with a presence of over 40 years in the market.
