“ Eucalyptus is the new choice for hip and beautiful home and garden furniture. ”
Founder and President of greenfeet, Valerie Reddemann’s says that “Eucalyptus is the new choice for hip and beautiful home and garden furniture. It’s highly sustainable, durable and affordable”. Reddemann believes that sustainable furniture is a trend that’s here to stay. “Consumers are smart and savvy. They’re learning that alternative choices don’t have to sacrifice style or quality and are many times more affordable.”
The top 5 reasons why greenfeet’s eucalyptus furniture is a better environmental choice than other furniture made from hardwood such as teak include:
1. Eucalyptus is an extremely hard and durable wood and weathers better than teak.
2. Eucalyptus has a long life and will last 50-100 years if properly maintained.
3. Eucalyptus is naturally resistant to rot.
4. Unlike slow-growing teak, eucalyptus is grown quickly in plantations- not harvested from shrinking rainforests, making it the sustainable choice.
5. Eucalyptus has a beautiful and interesting grain and color and costs 1/3 the price of true teak.
Greenfeet’s eucalyptus furniture is grown in well managed, independently certified forests. For more information on the environmental benefits of eucalyptus, please visit their website at www.greenfeet.com.
