At
TerraMai we reclaim because we enjoy bringing you beauty.
Bringing the incomparable beauty of dense, old growth woods to
so many people makes us proud. We feel a sense of accomplishment
in being able to bring our customers incomparable woods that are
no longer available to responsible consumers, if at all. The durability,
integrity and character of reclaimed wood has become an enriching
part of many lives because we do what we do. That means a lot
to everyone at TerraMai.
We reclaim because we love the history
behind our products. We can't help but be fascinated by the amazing
wood we find and the stories that wood tells. Our travels take
us all over the world, meeting other people who share our value
of conservation and our belief in the ethic of recycling. Let's
face it, that's a lot of fun.
We reclaim wood because it allows us to
work and live in ways that contribute positively to the world.
Reclaiming wood is of huge benefit to the environment. SmartWood
Certification Systems estimates that reclaiming one million board
feet of lumber preserves one thousand acres of old growth forest.
Even with growing awareness about the reuse of wood, much of the
wood we reclaim would still be chipped, burned or otherwise wasted.
We founded TerraMai with the vision of protecting old growth forests
in both our local and global communities. To this end, the more
wood TerraMai and its customers reclaim, the more we support that
vision.
