What is a green building?
Green building is relatively still a new term, but it has recently soared to popularity due to the rapidly increasing global warming and environmental crisis. People are coming up with many new ideas to protect and preserve the natural environment around them. This is where the practice of green building comes in. Green building refers to the creation of structures or buildings while preserving the natural surroundings and simultaneously serving its initial purpose. The construction of a green building and all its processes aims not to disrupt Mother Nature. Rather, it promotes a healthy working and living environment for all involved. This is achieved by incorporating sustainable resources and materials in its construction, such as materials procured from reused, recycled or renewable contents, efficient use of energy and water resources, reducing waste or any other activity that will add to further degradation of the environment.
Making use of eco-friendly veneers

Veneers come with a lot of choices that you can select from for that elegant and sophisticated look in your home.
What is a veneer?
Natural veneer is a unique material sliced from logs that is influenced by an individual tree’s reaction to its soil composition, geographic location and other growing conditions throughout the duration of its growth.
The intrinsic patterns and markings in natural veneers aren’t altered or enhanced in any way, making each natural veneer from a tree an individual work of art.
The production process for natural wood veneer is known as slicing. This is when an entire log, or part of a log, is sliced with the use of an extremely sharp knife, producing thin sheets of veneer. Sustainability in the modern world is highly appreciated. So, while using trees that are essential for the continuation of life on Earth, no timber must be wasted. In this context, wood veneer sheets meet the expectations of the concerned customers who strive for an eco-friendly environment. Covering furniture with veneer sheets enhances its durability and strength making it resistant to fungi and moulds. It is also resistant to warping and splitting, making it ideal for renovations. Its tough surface allows it to withstand the changing seasons as well as harsh surroundings. Also, wood veneers are in no way harmful to humans or animals as it makes use of a non-toxic adhesive that is free from VOCs (volatile organic compounds).
Not only are wood veneers natural and environment friendly, but they also come in a variety of beautiful colours, textures and grains, and designs called decorative veneers, which the customers can choose from while constructing their home. Natural wood veneers give you the freedom to design your home furniture at affordable prices. Thus, it guarantees sustainability, quality and beauty.
