Eco Policy
When it comes to a choice between PVCu or metal, and wood, it is clear which is more environment-friendly, now so more than ever. With wood there’s no industrial process, no harmful waste, no noxious fumes. When properly managed, wood is completely sustainable and far preferable to the use of aluminium or petrochemical-based plastics. Wood that is protected and well maintained is also extremely durable and can last a lifetime.
At Taylors we are committed to supporting the responsible management of the world’s timber resources by promoting the trade in timber products from well-managed forests, where wood is produced in accordance with the rules of the Forest Stewardship Council – FSC.
We are also committed to care of the environment in the minimising and disposal of our own waste, using our timber offcuts and shavings to produce energy and sorting all waste for recycling.
Alongside manufacturing our range of highly efficient windows, doors and conservatories we use Accoya wood extensively, providing far superior thermal efficiency over aluminium, plastic or hardwood equivalents whilst vastly reducing the need for maintenance and future replacements thus keeping carbon locked-in for longer.
