At WOOD-SKIN, our patented process allows us to design sustainable, high-end, high quality, and innovative solutions for the architectural environment – and every project we create conveys these values.
WOOD
The earliest iteration of WOOD-SKIN was made with wooden composite, as the name implies, and is still the main material for our projects.
We started a collaboration with an Italian firm that supports farmers who want to plant fruit trees, financing their work in the early years, when the trees are not yet productive. Thanks to Treedom, we already have a tiny forest composed of 400 trees, that will grow with us in the years to come.
We have committed to planting 1 tree for every 10m2 of WOOD-SKIN produced for each project.
FOLLOW THE TREES
FSC® CERTIFICATE
We have always valued the beauty of natural materials and we make sure that our wood comes from certified forests. Since January 2020 we have joined the long list of FSC®-certified Italian companies. The materials we use for the creation of WOOD-SKIN composite come from forests where natural diversity is protected and preserved and the rights of workers and local communities are respected.
Thanks to our patented technology, all our production, and design methods are sustainable from both an environmental and social perspective.
To ensure quality and sustainability in production processes and work sites, we commit to the following objectives:
• Fostering close collaboration and transparency with partners and manufacturers.
• Using local materials wherever possible to minimize our environmental impact.
• Using long life materials that are certified or materials from suppliers with an environmentally-conscious focus.
• Smart production with less material waste
• Flat shipping
SUSTAINABLE GOALS
DRY ASSEMBLY
Our designs remain functional over time, thanks to a dry assembly method tested over the years of projects and installations.
One of the main values of WOOD-SKIN is its ability to evolve, to change form and assume a new life, thanks to the possibility of ever-changing configurations.
SUSTAINABLE GOALS
ATTENTION TO DETAIL
We support and collaborate on projects that redefine boundaries within the building industry by developing environmentally friendly solutions.
FUTURE SUSTAINABLE AIM
DIFFUSE MANUFACTURING
In the future, WOOD-SKIN will be even more sustainable.
Thanks to the digital nature of our patented process, one of our future aims is to achieve “zero kilometer” production. This will allow us to:
• sustain local production and manufacturing
• use local resources
• avoid long-distance shipments
• reduce emissions
