Sustainability at Elesco

Sustainability has never been so important, and we are proud advocates for protecting our planet. By sourcing responsibly and prioritising sustainable practices, we not only safeguard natural resources but also help our clients to achieve leading environmental benchmarks, including BREEAM certification, shaping a future built on resilience and responsibility.

Our Responsibility

  • Certified by Design

    We partner exclusively with FSC® certified suppliers for our raw material, ensuring every piece of oak we use is responsibly sourced and fully traceable.

  • Sustainability in Practice

    FSC® certification ensures forests are managed responsibly - protecting biodiversity, supporting local communities and workers, and maintaining economic sustainability.

  • High Standards, Globally Recognised

    Certified forests must meet strict principles covering conservation, community relations, workers’ rights, and environmental impact, helping safeguard the world’s forests for future generations.

Flooring for generations

A floor that endures is a floor that lasts. By blending traditional craftmanship with modern finishing, Elesco floors are built for generations to enjoy. This is guaranteed with our lifetime structural warranty - reducing waste and environmental impact into the future.

Finishes with care

Our finishes are crafted using only the best UV-cured oils, stains, hard waxes and lacquers. We partner with trusted brands such as Blanchon, Saicos and Ciranova who lead the way in eco-friendly finishes. Their commitment to the European V.O.C. Directive ensures a continuous reduction in any impact to the environment from their activities. They encourage customers to use the most environmentally friendly products and continuously develop more eco sensitive products. Each Elesco finish is developed and mixed in our UK workshop, eliminating mass production and ensuring an exceptional standard of finish.

Wellbeing Through Design

For us, both sustainability and wellbeing are as important as each other - our products enhance everyday life in the spaces that they grace. Timber naturally improves air quality, regulates temperature, and adds comfort. Our carefully developed finishes balance durability with environmental safety, supporting healthier homes, workplaces, and communities.

Recyclability

Our floors are manufactured to last for generations. However, tastes change and should you wish to remove your Elesco floor you can with the knowledge that it is 100% recyclable.
