The Beauty of Sustainable Wood

As you start to prepare for your precious new arrival, you’ll become increasingly aware of the variety of decisions ahead of you. Choosing your baby’s furniture should be a fun and rewarding task, but where do you start and how do you know what’s best for them? As well as design and style choices, you’ll find that there are many different materials to choose from. Here at Boori we always favour the most natural resources available which is why we use sustainable timber wherever possible in our furniture. Here are just some of the reasons why you should choose timber for your little one’s nursery furniture.

Beauty


As a proud Australian brand, Araucaria is the obvious choice to be used across the majority of our products. As well as being strong and durable, the uniformity of Araucaria’s grain and texture means it creates a consistently beautiful finish in our furniture. Our nursery-friendly paint finishes further enhance the natural beauty of our wood grains and the gentle ingredients mean your home will be kept clean, safe and free from nasty chemicals.

Uniqueness


When choosing wooden furniture, you can be certain that your nursery will be unique. No two pieces of wood are the same; annual rings, knots and grains all ensure that each piece of wood we select is as unique as the tree it came from.

Sustainability


Wood offers a natural, renewable material. Many brands claim to use wood in their furniture but it’s hard to determine if their wood comes from sustainable sources. We’re committed to minimising our effect on the world’s tree population and ensure we only select timbers from sustainably certified sources. As well as choosing sustainable wood, we’re also dedicated to reducing the waste produced by our manufacturing process. We use state-of-the-art laser measuring technology to optimise the wood and use as much of it as possible. As no part of the timber goes to waste, we use fewer trees to make our products.

Environmentally-Friendly


We’re devoted to protecting your home environment and our planet. By using paint finishes with low VOCs and solid wood, we’ve created furniture that will help keep air pollution to a minimum in your home.
