Environmental impact is a huge consideration

We are very aware of the environmental impact of manufacturing, which is why we only partner with quality timber suppliers that adhere to strict FSC and PEFC certification. These long-standing partnerships offer us provenance for the sustainability of the materials we use and our finished furniture.

How we conserve energy here at dovetails

Our focus on reducing energy consumption is to reduce heat loss, optimise lighting and maintain and invest in energy efficient equipment. Implementing these strategies provide a lower carbon output and contribute to a more sustainable business model

Second use waste

We repurpose waste for crafting smaller projects and recycling into new products where possible. By minimising waste and maximising reuse we are contributing to sustainability

Our supply chain

We regularly audit every part of our supply chain to ensure that the highest of environmental standards are upheld

Products selected to lower environmental Impact

Our focus is always to choose sustainably sourced materials: FSC certified timber, implement lean manufacturing principles to minimise waste and employ eco friendly finishes with low VOC content. In addition we choose reusable energy sources, high performance insulation and ventilation in our workshop
