SUSTAINABILITY

 

When we use recycled timber is not only a benefit to the environment but it also, is recycling apart of Australia’s history.When you select Newton’s furniture you will be introducing some nature into your home. Australia’s forests are managed and controlled by Governments that have signed the National Forest Policy Statement.
The Statement lays out the vision and objectives of sustainable forest management on public and private land, in natural forests and plantations.
Choosing furniture made from sustainably harvested timber is drawing responsibly on a very small proportion of our natural resources.
It does not harm our environment and it helps support Australian industry.Newton’s Furniture only selects timber that is sourced using sustainable practices.
So whether we purchase our timber from responsibly managed forests or recycled/ reclaimed timber from old timber structures such as bridges, railways, piers & wharfs, telephone poles and demolished building.
At Newton’s Furniture, we like the our furniture provides a talking point in your home, and furthermore we believe that all our timber has a story. 
REMEMBER, Timber is a renewable resource. It is not dug up, refined using lots of energy. Whilst growing timber cleanses our environment and releases oxygen back into the air.
