Our eco-responsible approach

 

A concrete commitment to a sustainable timber industry

 

At Scierie Faucheron, we are committed to combining industrial performance with environmental responsibility. Our eco-responsible approach is built on concrete actions designed to ensure sustainable resource managementwood traceability, and the full utilization of raw materials.

 

 

100% material recovery – Responsible by-product management

 

As part of a circular economy approach, we implement strict management of sawmill by-products (bark, sawdust, wood chips, etc.). These by-products from log processing are sorted, recycled, and repurposed through local channels — for energy production, mulch, or wood-based panels — thus contributing to zero-waste production and an optimized environmental footprint.

 

 

 

RBUE / RDUE – Compliance and due diligence in wood traceability

 

We rigorously apply the current European Union Timber Regulation (EUTR / EUDR), which requires all operators in the wood sector to exercise due diligence. This means that every imported batch of wood is verified, traced, and documented to guarantee the legality of its originand compliance with environmental standards.


We give priority to wood sourced from responsibly managed forests.

 

 

 

Prioritizing sustainable, responsibly managed timber

 

Whether working with oakFrench hardwoods, or exotic species, we select every batch from sustainably managed forests, often certified (PEFC, OLB, FSC, etc.).
This choice ensures natural forest regenerationbiodiversity protection, and balanced forest ecosystems.

 

 

Local and committed production

 

Located in Vendée (France), our sawmill favors local sourcing for French hardwoods and collaborates exclusively with renowned forestry partners for exotic species supply.


This geographical proximity, combined with our integrated transport fleet, helps to significantly reduce the carbon footprint associated with our logistics operations.
