This reclaimed wood flooring is remilled from tight-grained, old-growth lumber taken from deconstructed buildings, salvaged from waterways or urban areas, or cut from standing dead or wind-fallen trees. It benefits the environment because it offers the beauty and function of wood while still leaving forests intact--as well as the soil protection, oxygen and habitat they provide.
They also make a point not to salvage wood from buildings that have historical relevance. This preserves our human heritage.
These woods are some of the most natural and nontoxic woods available. Since much of the wood was cut decades ago, it is well-weathered and will not add anything but beauty to indoor air quality.
