    Green Notes  
       
       
    Speke | Klein is committed to reducing our company's impact on the environment.  
       
    Sustainability:  
   
Speke | Klein’s furniture is built to last. Our company focuses on high-quality raw materials, traditional craftsmanship and timeless design, resulting in furniture that is intended for current and future generations, not for next year’s landfill.
 
    Locally made:  
   
All Speke | Klein’s products are manufactured in Southern Ontario using regional hardwoods, for the North American market, thereby limiting the environmental impact of material and product transportation.
 
    Raw materials:  
   
Wood is a natural product and renewable resource. Speke | Klein uses only North American hardwoods, sourced from responsibly managed forests.
 
    Recycling practices:  
   
Wherever possible, all wood remnants are incorporated into other products and wood waste is kept to a minimum. The majority of Speke | Klein's furniture designs can be disassembled so that individual materials can be removed for re-use or recycling.
 
    Wood Finishes:  
   
Our European hand-rubbed oil finish has been approved by independent laboratories such as the German Institute for Biological Building Materials and meets or exceeds the most stringent VOC (volatile organic compounds) regulations in North America.
 
   
Our lacquer finish is HAPs (hazardous air particles) free and has ultra low VOC (volatile organic compounds) and formaldehyde release standards (meeting European E-1 Standard).
