Since 1925, responsable forestry has been a key aspect of our journey, where access to high-quality wood enabled us to craft beautiful and durable floors.
Hørning’s Approach to Green Building
Since our founding in 1925, responsable forestry has been a key aspect of Hørning’s journey. Access to high-quality wood has enabled us to craft the beautiful and durable floors that architects and customers appreciate. However, the concept of sustainability has evolved significantly over the decades.
Today, the green transition requires thorough documentation - not just for us but also for our customers. Navigating these requirements is no small task, but at Hørning, we strive for precision and accountability.
For instance, many of our floors come with Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), providing architects with detailed information about their environmental impact. Additionally, Hørning is FSC® and PEFC-certified, which means our wood comes from responsibly managed forests that meet strict environmental, social, and economic standards. This makes Hørning a suitable choice for architecture and construction projects where material transparency is important.
By combining our heritage of craftsmanship with modern environmental standards, Hørning aims to meet high expectations for beauty, durability, and work toward a greener transition.
