An Environmentally Responsible Exotic Hardwood Company
Forest Preservation | Replanting | Approved Harvesting Practices
Our number one goal is preserving the forests of the Amazon . Our staff in South America works closely with the local Government to ensure the harvest of only woods that are approved under U.S. and South American government authorization, replanting three-fold as we cut to assure a renewable product. As an 18-year resident of Latin America and a lifetime resident of the U.S., our company understands the delicate balance of ecological responsibility with the management of the forests and vegetation in this beautiful region of the world. The South American government realizes that the future of this region is pertinent to the future of our planet.
At New Horizons Hardwoods Inc., we take our position as an environmentally responsible company very seriously. By promoting forest preservation, and responsible lumbering practices, we insure that ours is a renewable product, leaving as small an environmental footprint as possible.
Because of the density and hardness of these woods, they are truly made to last a lifetime without harsh, earth damaging chemicals and are reuseable and recycleable for generations to come. Man-made composite materials often require earth-damaging techniques and waste during manufacturing and may eventually contribute to our landfill problem and non-biodegradable refuse.
"(Wood) is the only sustainable, reneweable and carbon-neutral raw material available to mankind." (Timber Trade Federation)
Our Mission
For the past 18 years, we have supported and contributed to the economic development of communities in Latin America. Helping them to responsibly manage their forests will prevent them from clearing the land to farm it as their only other alternative to earn a living and feed their families. Our mission is to maintain these forests as well as to bring economic stability to South America.
