Van Dijk Staircase Solutions strives for corporate social responsibility. It not only ensures that the products are produced with the utmost care and attention – it also takes people, planet and animals into consideration during the production process.
Van Dijk Staircase Solutions takes nature into consideration for the production of our stair treads. Ask about our certified products. The material we use comes from responsibly managed FSC®-certified forests. The habitat of plants and animals in these forests is protected by logging in sections. This allows sections of the forest to recover in the meantime. The loggers are also provided with a safe working environment, and good arrangements are made with the local population regarding which part of the FSC forest may be cleared.
