Crocus sustainable relaxer chair
Crocus has a gorgeous line of hardwood patio furniture, most notably this Havana relaxer chair, which is only more gorgeous once you hear it's been marked down from £99 to a very endearing £49. Ethically harvested wood, too.
Crocus notes:
We all love hardwood furniture, but not if it's
at the expense of the dwindling rainforests. So our product buyers have
spent the last few years searching for sources of timber that don't
compromise the environment. They've worked closely with organisations,
such as Greenpeace and the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), so that
you can rest assured that the timber we use comes from sustainable
sources. Today, all our timber comes from strictly managed forests that
have been checked and approved by the Tropical Forest Trust (TFT). In
fact, we are the only leading online garden furniture supplier that can
guarantee all their hardwood furniture is made from timber sourced from
forests working with the Tropical Forest Trust (TFT) on a strictly
controlled management programme towards independent certification. By
liaising closely with Greenpeace and the Forest Stewardship Council
(FSC), we've been able to produce guidelines which allow us to offer
this unique environmental guarantee on all our hardwood products. As
Nathan Argent (Ancient Forest Campaigner at Greenpeace) explained, 'We
are pleased that Crocus.co.uk have taken such decisive steps to tackle
this issue and removed all controversial sources of timber from their
supply chain.'
Good show, guys.
