Kronospan, the UK’s foremost manufacturer of high quality wood-based panels, is leading the way in sustainable practices at its manufacturing plant based in North Wales. Committed to improving environmentally friendly practices, Kronospan has reached its highest ever levels of recycling, use of FSC timber and reclamation of waste that would ordinarily be sent to landfill.
Kronospan has a rigorous environmental assessment programme in place that constantly challenges working practices at the Chirk site, incorporating aspects such as the sourcing of materials, transport usage, the consumption of energy and levels of recycling.
The programme has seen Kronospan set new industry standards. One such example is the consumption of waste wood. The company uses 350,000 tonnes of waste wood each year, most of which is packaging waste, which would otherwise have been landfilled.
Kronospan prides itself on sourcing all virgin timber from sustainable sources, and all of its products are FSC certified, guaranteeing that all raw materials are genuinely carbon neutral.
The company has also assessed its transport links, with at least 90 per cent of all lorries traveling to and from the Chirk site now carrying full loads at all times.
