As a parquet specialist, you are aware that wood is a healthy and durable material that can provide a healthy living environment. Unfortunately, this is new information for a lot of people, while wood in the home contributes to better health. This is why T&G Wood introduces… Healthy Home.
With this Healthy Home campaign, we want to change this. By putting the best properties of wooden floors in the spotlight, we hope to encourage consumers to make the right choice and choose a wooden floor.
Wood creates a healthy living environment
We spend 80 to 90% of our lives in enclosed spaces, breathing in all kinds of substances. These substances include harmful substances. It is important for our health to minimize our intake of these, something a wooden floor can help with. Wooden floors have a hard surface that does not allow (harmful) substances to settle. Substances on the surface can be removed easily this way.
Air purifier and/or humidifier
So, a wooden floor already ensures a healthier living environment. To ensure that the remaining substances are removed, we recommend the purchase of an air purifier and/or humidifier. An air purifier cleans the air by trapping dust, allergens and viruses. In addition, proper humidity also ensures good health and preservation of the wooden floor.
FSC®-certified
A large proportion of our Wooden floors is FSC®-certified, which means that this wood comes from responsibly managed forests. Through responsible forest management, the FSC® aims to preserve forests in habitat and they utilize local sources such as labour. So a FSC® forest remains a forest and is not cut down for other purposes like the establishment of palm oil, soy plantations and mining.
By using FSC®-certified products, you contribute to the global protection of forests and a healthy living environment for people and animals. Therefore wood as a resource is a sustainable solution.
