Holland’s largest producer of ready-to-assemble furniture has announced it is to start using the PEFC label on its products.
Nijpels Meubelen BV was issued with a PEFC chain of custody certificate on January 12, enabling it to demonstrate that its products are manufactured using timber originating from sustainable managed forests.
“We supply to a number of large customers in the Netherlands, particularly DIY and home furnishing stores, but the greatest demand for certified products is from our international customers,” said Ben Brevet, Nijpels purchasing manager.
“In the UK in particular, companies lead the way in responsible procurement. We have been purchasing certified panels for some years, but were keen to go even further to demonstrate responsible sourcing.”
Nijpels also produces solutions for loft conversions in its “Plexat make room” range.
