Performance: Sustainability

Sustainable development is about ensuring a better quality of life for everyone; now and for generations to come

Timber products, sourced from well managed forests, ensure that more trees are planted than are cut down for processing. The younger trees that are planted as replacements are better adapted for reducing atmospheric CO2 thus further reducing greenhouse gases. In some instances, areas of deciduous trees are planted within conifer forests to encourage a diversity of wildlife.

PEFC's logo   One forestry management scheme, PEFC (the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) promotes sustainably managed forests through independent third party certification. This scheme has certified and audited NorDan AS windows and doors as achieving full PEFC chain of custody (licence No. PEFC/03-31-16), thus verifying that the timber used in the manufacture of the products comes from sustainably managed sources.

Image of the Swanmark   The NTech Passive window range has achieved the coveted Scandinavian Swanmark. This is only awarded to products that meet extremely high environmental standards. The Swanmark takes into consideration the product’s impact on the environment from the raw material to waste, also setting criteria with regard to quality and performance.
