DANBURY, CT, Nov. 13, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Sustainable Furnishings Council (SFC) and the National Wildlife Federation (NWF) recognized Ethan Allen for its wood-sourcing policies and commitment to sustainable wood used to make the furniture they sell. Ethan Allen was awarded the designation of “Most Improved” for 2024, which is given to only one furniture retailer per year.

The majority of wood sourced by Ethan Allen in its furniture manufacturing is comprised of certified sustainable wood. At its Vermont case goods plant, the company also recycles wood chips and sawdust generated during manufacturing, using the recycled biomass to power wood-drying kilns and cogenerate electricity.

“Ethan Allen has a long-standing commitment to sustainable operations and manufacturing, and this recognition reaffirms our commitment to responsible wood sourcing,” stated Farooq Kathwari, Ethan Allen’s Chairman, President and CEO. “We commend the SFC and NWF’s mission to educate the industry on responsible practices and to increase consumer awareness, so customers can weigh a company’s environmental commitment when they make purchasing decisions.”

Ethan Allen is also Verified Sustainable by Appalachian Hardwood Manufacturers Inc. (AHMI), a recognition that the company sources wood from responsibly managed Appalachian forests.
