Waste into Worth: Closing the Loop
We follow the Waste Hierarchy Directive (EU) 2018/851, prioritizing waste minimization, reuse, and recovery
Waste Minimization
Advanced cutting techniques limit unnecessary waste, using both parts of cut-offs to reduce material consumption.
Waste Reuse
Any remaining wood pieces are repurposed into other designs.
Waste Recovery
Sawdust and unsavable wood cut-offs fuel biomass boilers, powering our facilities with renewable energy and reducing our carbon footprint.
Health and wellbeing is at the base of having a good life. Sustainability not only looks at the wellbeing of people, but also at the wellbeing of the Earth. At SAWO, wellbeing is our business. We make sure you are taken care of with a sauna. We also do our best to make sure the Earth is taken care of. Wellbeing is Sustainability. Be well. Sauna well.
