Sustainability

Barlow Tyrie sources the finest grade Forest Law Enforcement Governance and Trade (FLEGT) licensed teak (BRIK-VLK-0137), along with marine grade stainless steel and aluminium. Hardware is made from solid brass or stainless steel where dictated by strength requirements. Every collection is designed with an uncompromising combination of quality materials and craftsmanship in mind.

 

With this quality of materials comes sustainability. Barlow Tyrie ensures the legality of the timber used both through the FLEGT licensing scheme and through Indonesia’s national timber legality assurance system (SVLK), which exists to combat illegal logging and black market trade in teak. Barlow Tyrie’s teak wood is first grade plantation grown teak (Tectona Grandis) sourced mainly in Indonesia, where responsible forestry practices are employed.

 

With Barlow Tyrie furniture you can be sure that the wood used is sustainable, ethically grown and sourced from only the finest quality teak.
