With tropical and temperate forests of the 19th century disappearing, sustainability is at the forefront of all environmentally conscious businesses of today. Old growth tropicals and softwoods prized for their uniformity and stability are, for practical purposes, unavailable or unaffordable today.

Before “sustainability” was a used as a marketing gimmick Elochoman has been using sustainable practices from our earliest days in business. Our cores are made from the highest quality Douglas Fir. It is sustainably harvested, cut into clears, and finger jointed to maximize stability. Further, we rip it into narrow staves and recombine it randomly into the core lamination (with edge bands) to ensure the maximum uniformity and stability in your doors.
