Plyboo
Bamboo and coconut can be used to create beautiful wood flooring,
paneling, trim molding, plywood, and veneers. And since both are
renewable resources—meaning they grow quickly—they make
a sound environmental choice for the savvy homeowner. Visit their
website at www.plyboo.com for more information.
Reclaimed Woods
Reclaimed wood is wood harvested from older buildings for new use
in renovation. Since it’s essentially a recycled product, it
makes ecological sense to use as much reclaimed wood as possible.
Wood is dismantled from properties slated for demolition or from
large renovation projects; any metal such as nails or brackets are
removed and the pieces are refinished. Reclaimed wood gives your
home a sophisticated antique look, and can give a richer dimension
to any décor. Reclaimed wood is available through variety
of outlets, but you might want to take a look at the Antiquity Collection
by Mohawk, which transforms stumps or milled beams into engineered
flooring. |
