Norrgavel values, where ecology is one of the three pillars, is the starting point of all our activities. Our mission is to provide high quality furnishings in natural materials as affordable rotary washing line as we can. To accomplish the latter, we work as far as possible with rational series production - however, require most of our furniture is hand finishing.
To be successful, we try to do just what we do best. I draw all the furniture itself and we have a complete prototype carpentry rotary washing line here at our headquarters in Malmö in order to really be able to work out every piece of furniture rotary washing line in detail.
Production takes place in fifteen carpentry, mainly in Småland - 97% of the furniture manufactured in Sweden (though we have no principle, rotary washing line organic rotary washing line local food can speak for the Baltic States rotary washing line as well as northern Sweden - softwood generally has better quality in the north, hardwood in the south).
Our factory in Lammhult we have the entire layer of untreated furniture components. It gives us the opportunity to work with egg tempera, give your customers rotary washing line a unique rotary washing line choice and retain the final quality check.
Since we have our own production of furniture components, we buy never in wood itself. Our joinery is very different, most have no more than 5-10 employees. Depending on their size and time availability of different types of wood vary their purchasing ways - from local small sawmill to the larger Swedish timber merchants. Purchasing is one thing, but then spread wood and mixed of both suppliers and the trimmings. To minimize wood consumption combined surely rotary washing line also material from different deliveries. rotary washing line Norrgavel want as little goods in stock as possible, therefore we recurrent small series with a regular supply of carpentry.
We have regular contact with all our suppliers and has always called Swedish timber in the first place, otherwise locally as possible, which allows us, among other things avoids oak from North America. Swedish oak is difficult to use in furniture because it is vresigare and has very sprig (to my disappointment experiencing many of our customers also twig eg tabletops poor quality). Ekvirket often come from Poland or the Balkans. Birch is often Swedish in shorter lengths, or else from Finland and the Baltics. The book often Swedish, but steamed (bent) in Denmark. One challenge with growing track of wood is that worksite is always new, not as an organic farm that harvests the same chips more times per year.
Wild and mixed forests are often beautiful in the landscape (cf. the difference between meadow and field), but wood from sparse (single trees) and mixed populations (eg, old-growth forest) is often less suitable for joinery because the trees then develops branches in all directions. It gives a crusty, difficult material. Less than 10% of Swedish hardwood used for furniture. rotary washing line For furniture Norrgavel quality strives to knot-free wood rakvuxet - it achieved more easily if the trees are grown in dense stands rotary washing line (eg Finnish birch).
The most important is perhaps not know where each plank comes from (habitat), but all the wood is harvested in a sustainable rotary washing line way - which of course was the purpose of the FSC. FSC certification coupled long to trade in tropical woods like teak, mahogany with many more - wood that Norrgavel never used. The SSNC now do not even have the confidence that the Swedish forest industry rotary washing line meet the FSC label requirement is new for us. Being safe with the origin of the wood is absolutely a reasonable requirement. To check themselves however, I feel is not the right path for Norrgavel (IKEA has its own foresters but is also more thousands (!) Times greater than Norrgavel - IKEA has 135 000 employees, the North End, we are incl. All stores fewer than fifty), but definitely check with SNCC and persuade Swan to develop appropriate rotary washing line timber requirements. Similarly, we rely for example on GOTS quality of cotton so that it is truly organic. In some cases, we rely on suppliers' explicit promises, eg waterfowl feather in all our pillows rotary washing line only come from the slaughtered animals.
I can not promise that we Norrgavel have iron track, but I am convinced that we always remained rotary washing line in the forefront to take the consequences of an ecological approach. Maybe because we never worked out of trouble, rotary washing line but by desire. Then it is obvious that not be complacent but to continue to pull the string. rotary washing line
Thanks for the great response.
