OUR SUSTAINABILITY POLICY
At Fawn Allen, we believe that interior design, heritage renovation, and joinery can be a force for positive change. That's why we're committed to sustainable practices that minimise our environmental impact and create healthier, more sustainable spaces.
OUR SUSTAINABILITY PLEDGE
Ethical sourcing: We prioritise materials from sustainable sources, including FSC-certified wood and recycled materials.
Healthy indoor environments: We use non-toxic materials and ensure proper ventilation to create healthy living spaces.
Sustainability is key to everything we do. We firmly believe that using quality, sustainable materials alongside skilled craftmanship is the secret to the success of a project. Wherever possible we use materials sourced from reputable companies with fantastic sustainability records, so that we can ensure that the final product is long lasting, well crafted, and well cared for. This matters to us right through the entire process, from sourcing the materials to the creation and fitting of your product.
It is important to us that our timber is sourced in a way that benefits the local communities and the lives of the people and workers within those communities, as well as ensures that local biological diversity is maintained. This is why we make sure that the majority of our timber is FSC certified and comes from companies who source their product from legally managed and sustainable forests.
Here is a list of our timber and ironmongery suppliers, with links to their sustainability commitments:

Beyond this we also choose quality water-based paints, oils, and lacquers, that are hard-wearing, scratch and abrasion resistant but are also low in Volatile Organic compounds (VOC) to ensure we limit the number of environmentally toxic elements we use in production.
