Altruwood is a producer of FSC Certified and reclaimed lumber. FSC Certified wood is wood that has been harvested from forests deemed to be practicing environmentally and economically sustainable forestry. The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) is an international organization that certifies forestry practices all over the world. Reclaimed lumber is obtained from old buildings, barns, factories and warehouses. Reclaimed wood is generally old-growth-lumber that was harvested from trees that were bigger and older than anything being currently harvested. As a result, this wood tends to possess superior characteristics to new-growth lumber.
