Sustainability
Every John Boos product goes through rigorous testing procedures, inspections and validation measures to ensure that we’re delivering only the highest quality products to our consumers. As a result of these processes, we are proud to be recognized by a number of certification listings. Below is a list of the certifications we strive to maintain by way of our quality product standards.
RENEWABLE TIMBER
Quality for generations to come
By sourcing renewable, sustainable North American hardwoods like Hard Rock Maple, Cherry, Black Walnut, and Red Oak, we ensure both product quality and the preservation of natural resources, keeping our planet and craftsmanship vibrant for future generations.
Zero-waste Woodworking
Making the most of every tree
At John Boos, all wood scraps and sawdust are utilized in a wood-burning boiler to generate steam, which powers the glue press, heats the factory, and dries lumber in the kiln. This process ensures zero waste by converting byproducts into energy, making their operations both sustainable and highly efficient.
Responsible Forestry
Ensuring forests thrive for generations
Environmental stewardship and longstanding waste management concerns magnify the wisdom of choosing the quality, durability, strength and natural beauty of American hardwood products that, coupled with American craftsmanship, will endure for generations.
