Forest Friendly
Duroply is known as the forest-friendly company because we have relentlessly raised the bar of sustainable environment management by implementing world class systems and processes to mitigate our impact on the environment.
Due to our efforts, we are certified by the Forest Stewardship Council for responsible management of wood based products and also ISO 14001 Certified for environmental management.
Duroply Industries Limited is committed towards procuring the finest raw material that must be from legal and sustainable sources. This includes procuring timber that has reached its maturity, source of origin is known, and must come from forests or plantations that are Substainability managed.
As part of our FSC certification, we are committed to avoid sourcing of wood and veneer that is:
Moreover, almost all required energy can be generated from wood residues, coming out of the plywood manufacturing process. These residues consist of bark, sanding dust, etc., which are not fit for the final product. The burning installations are highly integrated in the overall process of plywood production. By utilizing waste wood we avoid usage of other fossil fuel to run our factory such as Gas or Coal.
It is to be noted that Wood is one of the most eco-friendly materials that we have. To grow wood, it takes a short time (10-50 years), sun, water and soil. Wood is also a CO2-neutral material. Not only standing trees, but also timber products, like PLYWOOD, act as a CO2-sink. Plywood is light and requires little energy for processing. In addition, wood based products are good insulating material thereby can reduce the cooling and heating requirements and save energy costs.
