At Van Maele Benelux, we not only value quality and precision, but also sustainability. That is why we are particularly proud of our partner Unior, who has recently been awarded the official PEFC certificate. An important recognition that proves that craftsmanship and environmental awareness can go hand in hand.
What is PEFC?
The PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) is the largest international organisation dedicated to sustainable forest management. With over 239 million hectares of certified forests worldwide and nearly 16,000 member companies, PEFC plays an essential role in the protection of our natural resources.
Unior consciously chooses sustainable wood
Unior, known for its high-quality hand tools, uses wooden handles for some of its products. Thanks to the PEFC certification, Unior guarantees that this wood comes from sustainably managed forests. The origin of the wood is fully traceable throughout the entire production process: from harvesting and processing to transport and distribution. This way, you as a user can be sure of a product that is not only functional but also environmentally responsible.
Example products with certified wood
The certified wood is used, among other things, in popular tools such as:
•the Unior masonry hammer
These products combine robustness, ergonomics, and durability, and are popular with both professional tradespeople and technical training programmes.
Engagement of Van Maele Benelux
