THE TRUTH BEHIND TIMBER WHAT'S THE ENVIRONMENTAL COST?

The elegant wooden doors and fine furnishings we admire have a hidden story - they once stood tall as living trees, taking decades to grow in the heart of vibrant forests.

Today, an insatiable demand for timber, especially for doors, is stripping these forests at a pace they cannot heal from. Each fallen tree is more than lost wood - it is a silent shift in the balance of our environment, a slow unravelling of the living systems that sustain us.

We often overlook the silent tragedy behind deforestation - the vanishing of life itself. The forests we clear for timber are living worlds, home to millions of species, each playing a role in nature's harmony. When these trees fall, it's not just wood we take we unravel the planet's fragile balance. Ecosystems crumble, wildlife is driven to the edge, and the Earth loses one of its greatest shields against the forces of a changing climate.

The loss of trees results in losing carbon storage, apart from the ecology being disturbed. We know that trees are nature's filters, which absorb CO2 and help cool the planet. Once they are cut and utilised for various industries, the additional transportation and processing add up to the release of even more greenhouse gases. The production of 1 cubic meter of timber releases about 360kg of CO2. The environmental impact becomes staggering if we multiply the number by the demand for millions of wooden doors manufactured across the globe.
