As part of our ongoing efforts to develop more sustainable solutions, we are on the verge of offering EPDs for all our solid wooden floors.

A Key Step in the Green Transition

At Hørning, we see sustainability as a journey - not a destination. As part of our ongoing efforts to develop more sustainable solutions, we are on the verge of offering Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for all our solid wooden floors. This progress marks an important step in our mission to create products that unite superior quality, aesthetics, and environmental responsibility. 

Documented Environmental Impact – A Solid Foundation

With EPD-documented solid wooden floors, architects and engineers gain access to a product that combines natural materials with advantageous properties. EPDs provide a documented overview of the floors' lifecycle and environmental impact, making it easier to make informed material choices. 

Sustainability in Practice 

  • Carbon Storage: Wood naturally sequesters CO₂, making it a more responsible choice. EPDs document this effect. 
  • Responsible Forest Management: Our wood comes from FSC- or PEFC-certified forests, ensuring sustainable practices. 
  • Circular Economy: Solid wooden floors can be reused or recycled, supporting a resource-efficient construction industry. 

Long Lifespan – Reduced Resource Waste

Hørning’s solid wooden floors are designed to last for generations. With proper maintenance, their extended lifespan reduces the need for frequent replacements, lowering their overall environmental impact. 

The Future of Sustainable Construction

At Hørning, our sustainability journey doesn’t end with EPD documentation. We remain committed to exploring new materials and production methods that further can reduce our footprint on the planet. For us, sustainability is an evolving process, driven by advancements in knowledge and technology. 

By choosing Hørning’s solid wooden floors, you contribute to a construction culture that thinks long-term. Together, we are shaping a future where design and natural materials go hand in hand.
