Chain of custody certification ensures environmental issues are protected. Certified to ISO 14001 Be Modern operates in an environmentally sustainable manner and complies with the latest Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) regulations.
At Be Modern we feel it is important to contribute not just our product but also our time to local communities. In 2012 we won an award from the Forest Stewardship Council® for the best image taken during our FSC® Friday event at Houghton Children’s Centre. We taught the children of the importance of sustainable trees and planted 4 trees on their premises. Similarly in 2014 we took part in FSC® Friday in connection with Gentoo Group, as part of their incredible edible scheme; we planted fruit trees in St Aiden’s Catholic School in Sunderland with the help of their pupils.
Timber
Four million tonnes of waste wood is generated by the UK construction industry each year with an estimated 1.5 million tonnes going to landfill. Be Modern purchase thousands of cubic metres of MDF each year for its timber fireplace production and 0% of timber waste is sent to landfill. All waste timber and timber dust is incinerated in internally to generate heat for internal production areas. Heat recovery is recognised by WRAP as an efficient means of recycling and 0% waste remains Be Moderns ongoing target.
