Our solid wood comes from certified, well-managed forests, which already makes it a responsible choice. But that’s only part of the story.
Wood is a renewable material with a relatively low environmental impact compared to many alternatives. It requires less energy to process, and unlike non-renewable materials, it can be regrown and replenished over time.
The result is an 11-metre table that wraps around the building’s metal columns as if it was always meant to be there. Getting there, though, took some serious problem-solving—from sourcing the timber to refining the design and finally assembling everything on site.
As trees grow, they absorb carbon dioxide—and that carbon stays stored in the wood throughout its life. In simple terms, well-made wooden furniture holds onto that carbon for decades, sometimes generations.
Durability is another big part of the equation. Solid wood doesn’t just last—it can be repaired, refinished, and adapted over time. And when it finally reaches the end of its life, it’s biodegradable.
At Junto, we choose to work with solid wood because it aligns with how we think about longevity and responsibility. We also prioritise locally sourced timber whenever possible, helping to reduce the impact of transportation.
Good materials, used well, go a long way.
