 From tree to trim, FWS exemplifies responsible environmental stewardship.

This environmental commitment is maintained throughout FWS's manufacturing processes..jpg)
Raw materials are sourced from sustainable radiata pine tree farms.
Lumber used in the manufacture manufactured in our sawmills is dried in Fletcher's kilns, powered by geothermal energy rather than the traditional natural gas burning kilns. Geothermal energy is a clean, renewable resource that does not consume any fuel or produce significant emissions.
FWS's Taupo manufacturing site has reduced landfill waste by 50%. This has been accomplished through recycling efforts and finding creative alternative uses for "arising" products and manufacturing residues.

 Wood Products Living a Green Life
Western Red Cedar’s value lies in beauty, durability and environmental responsibility
Increasing focus on environmental responsibility is placing greater emphasis on sustainable building products and their ability to lower carbon footprints.
Building materials and techniques that increase energy efficiency attract a lot of attention, but end use is only a part of the story. Truly sustainable building efforts consider a product’s manufacturing-to-disposal environmental footprint. Careful life cycle examination provides a fuller environmental assessment and represents the next stage in green building materials.

The Hi-Velocity System is an energy efficient high pressure air delivery system that can be designed to provide heating, cooling, filtration, ventilation, humidification and dehumidification. The Hi-Velocity System works on the principle of pressure rather than air velocity. It is quite different than a conventional furnace, the main difference being that the supply duct work is all "small diameter" or "mini duct".
With a pressurized small diameter duct we condition the air differently than conventional forced air systems. With the use of a high pressure area to low pressure area, we continuously mix the room air, creating even temperatures from floor to ceiling. Because the plenum duct is pressurized, dust build-up within the duct work is eliminated. With continuous air circulation from the constant fan, airborne dust and other allergens can be easily filtered out of the air.
