The Brooks Group believes that timber is one of the earth’s most important renewable resources. We are committed to supporting the responsible management of the world’s forests by promoting the trade in timber and timber products from well-managed forests.
We will not trade in timber species prohibited under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora.
We are developing systems to obtain the clearest practicable information about the source of raw material in our products, so that we can make responsible purchasing decisions and support our customers’ environmental needs.
We are committed to purchasing timber and timber products from legal sources. We unreservedly condemn illegal logging practices and aim to keep ourselves informed of changes in international processes and legislation.
We support international efforts to improve forest management, such as the development of credible timber certification schemes. We recognise the independent certification of forests and the process chain is the most useful tool for providing assurances that timber comes from legal and well-managed forests. We will only use labels or accept certificates that include environmental or sustainability claims if they are supported by publicly available standards drawn up in a fully participatory, transparent, and objective manner – backed by independent third-party verification. We are certified to supply FSC® ( Forest Stewardship Council® ) certified products sourced from responsibly managed forests.
We are also PEFC certified to supply products from sustainably managed forests.
We aim to help our customers meet their environmental commitments by providing a range of products that meet the highest environmental standards.
We make every reasonable effort to minimise the environmental impact of our business, as for example by the efficient use of energy and recycling of waste at our sites.
We train our staff to fulfil their role in our environmental commitments.
