Hardwood ls Environmentally Safe

With more home buyers basing purchases on environmental conceflrs and more builders looking for environmentally acceptable building products, dealen have an excellent opportunity to stress hardwood products as environmentally safe choices.

Hardwood forests are among America's best managed resources. Thanks to professional forest management, the volume of hardwoods, including oak, ash, cherry, maple, poplar, alder, beeci and walnut, has increased by 70Vo smce 1955. With sustained yield forest management, the U.S. grows neady 4O9o more hardwoods than it harvests each year.

Hardwoods cover more thm 7.69 million acres in the U.S. Susained yield management ensutes that these forests will continue to supply the nation's needs for high quality building products such as cabinetry, millwork and flooring. Equdly important, sustained yield management helps enhance the forest habitat to support wildlife and maintain envirorunental balarrce.

Modern production technology allows the wood industry to use nearly all of each tree harvested. Laser-guided saws, improved quality oontrol and computer-assisted manufacnring waste little. Bark is used as fuel for the nill or to produce mulches and soil conditioners, while tree trimmings are procassed into a variety of wood products.

Thanks to proper management and nature, hardwoods remain a renewable natufal resoufce that contribut€s tro e healthier environment and provides a ready supply of bear tiful hadwoods for cabinetry, flooring, paneling and decorative woodwork. A reEiler can assure a builder custom€r that home buyers will recognize the environmental acceptability of hardwmd.
