TA ANN: BEHIND THE VENEER
Behind the Veneer: Forest destruction and Ta Ann Tasmania’s lies
The veracity of Ta Ann’s promotional claims must be closely scrutinised. The company’s support for destructive native forest logging in Tasmania, its decision to forego processing of plantation resources and its record of inaccurate or misleading statements fundamentally undermine its positioning as an ‘environmentally friendly’ supplier. Ta Ann Tasmania’s veneer products do not represent a genuine ‘ecological’ alternative.
