Wood Over Steel

Material choices matter. That’s why INTO Concept prioritizes PEFC- and FSC-certified wood over steel across our product range.
Here’s why:

RENEWABLE AND RESPONSIBLY SOURCED

We exclusively use PEFC- and FSC-certified wood, ensuring sustainable forest management and biodiversity protection. Unlike steel, wood is a renewable resource that supports a regenerative cycle.

LOWER CARBON FOOTPRINT

Processing wood requires significantly less energy than steel production. Additionally, wood acts as a natural carbon sink, storing CO₂ during its growth phase and helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

EASILY RECYCLABLE AND BIODEGRADABLE

Wood can be reused, recycled, or even composted. While steel is also recyclable, the process consumes substantially more energy.

LIGHTWEIGHT AND STRONG

Wood combines strength with a lower weight, making it easier to transport, handle, and install—reducing both emissions and labor time.

SUPPORTS HEALTHY INDOOR ENVIRONMENTS

Wood naturally enhances acoustics, reduces echo, and brings warmth to spaces. It contributes to a more pleasant, human-centered workspace.
