URBAN WOOD
Working with Cities to Repurpose Fallen Trees
In addition to our reclaimed woods and forested lumber, Urban Evolutions has introduced “urban wood” to our product line. Our program involves working with municipalities to repurpose fallen city trees. From those trees, we create beautiful, live sawn wall paneling, flooring, and tabletops for commercial and residential spaces. We are pleased to offer this local and sustainable alternative. A tree’s ability to absorb carbon throughout its life span makes them a vital resource in combating global warming. Choosing a sustainable source for your project or product ensures that those trees continue to store their carbon well into the future.

The Beauty & Impact of Urban Wood
Urban wood’s impact includes:
-
keeping carbon from being released into the atmosphere (a process known as carbon sequestration)
-
creating jobs
-
diverting felled trees from landfills
-
reusing lumber resources
Turning trees into solid wood products provides the only long-term carbon storage option. While many municipalities have begun recycling trees into mulch or firewood, our urban wood program keeps the wood in solid board form.
