GREEN BUILDING

Here at Ethington Building Supply we strive to stay ahead of the curve in the ever-changing world of building products. We also understand we must keep a balance between healthy forests and logging. Green building encompasses both of these principles and we are knowledgeable in the ways and means of using FSC lumber and have sources for all green products. We are also involved with the energy star program.

FSC stands for the Forest Stewardship Council which is the most well established association that certifies sustainable lumber. FSC certified lumber is sourced from a sustainably managed forest. Green building products have expanded in the marketplace and, with home construction still booming, there's more reason than ever to tame the excess with compact design and recyclable, earth-friendly materials.

We encourage consumers and contractors to buy FSC lumber. This will ensure that it was sourced from an accredited organization and from a forest that is managed in a more sustainable manner. Ask us for details and we’ll be glad to assist you.
