Happy Earth Day from all of us at Carlisle Wide Plank Floors. On this day that celebrates responsible stewardship of our planet and its natural resources, we’re proud to note that our products are “green.”

A posting on the website of Hardwood Floors magazine lists the many ways in which wood flooring is good for the environment. Here are just a few:

1. Hardwood forests are sustainable. Average annual net growth for hardwoods is greater than average annual removals.
2. Hardwood floors are healthy. Indoor air quality is excellent with wood floors.
3. Wood reduces global warming. It is a carbon neutral product that produces oxygen during its growth cycle and stores carbon during its service life.
