Sustainability by Kaindl
We care.
Wood is the natural basis of our ideas. Our responsibility for the environment therefore starts in the forest.
The wood we process is virtually exclusively log wood from thinning work in Austrian forests and residual wood from the sawmill industry. Handling natural resources responsibly is a major concern of ours. The circular economy, climate protection and an ecological value-added chain, are all part of the Kaindl corporate culture.
Environment and health – four reasons for Kaindl products
Circular economy
We primarily process recycled wood, locally sourced thinning timber, windthrown wood, and sawmill by-products using low-emission production processes based on the best available technology. From 2028 onwards, we will be able to cover our entire energy demand through our own production, using predominantly wood-based biomass.
Wood as a raw material
The responsible use of natural resources is one of our core values. Circular economy, climate protection, and a responsible value chain are integral parts of Kaindl's corporate culture. The wood we process comes from residual materials of the regional sawmill industry and originates from certified and controlled sources in accordance with PEFC standards*. Kaindl products consist of approximately 90% wood.
