Green Policy

Trading in woods is a sensitive matter. We often see in the media images of forest destruction particularly in the tropics, with timber companies cast as the main culprits. One thing that is certain is that the environment in general and forest ecosystems in particular are very complex. We at MAI are very conscious of the need to support the efforts of our Suppliers to operate under the principles of sound forest management. MAI is a signatory and firm supporter of the environmental balance which commits members to responsibly source their timber requirements and monitor their supplier’s environmental performance. One thing is for sure, it is only a strong forestry industry operating with sound forest management (however certified or verified) that will endow the forests with sufficient economic value to preserve them for the future. We buying woods from sustainable forests or plantation and other environmental friendly resources.
