California Green Builder

By conserving wood, there will be more trees to hug. Now go hug your builder.

Lumber is among the largest building material component for single-family construction and when used responsibly, wood is a renewable resource. In order to conserve this precious resource, California Green Builder homes use:

ENGINEERED WOOD PRODUCTS, which are recycled or reconstituted wood materials employing laminated wood chips or strands and finger-jointing. Engineered products such as exterior window and door headers, roof sheathing, shear walls and subfloors provide greater strength and flexibility than conventional products. By using engineered wood products,you save at least one tree per home.

CERTIFIED SUSTAINABLE WOOD PRODUCTS, whose timber is harvested from managed forests at a rate that can be permanently sustained.
