Around 30 thousand years ago, people discovered the art of crafting furniture using wood and stone. While various materials are employed in furniture production, wood remains the predominant choice. The vast expanses of forests supply this essential resource. However, with the surge in population and improvements in living standards, the demand for furniture has escalated, leading to deforestation and contributing to global warming. This has underscored the urgency for clean and renewable energy sources for a healthier living environment.
In response to these challenges, HATIL, the country’s leading furniture brand, has taken a decisive stance towards sustainable development. The furniture industry, often implicated in forest destruction, finds HATIL challenging this notion through its commitment to sustainable practices. HATIL stands as the pioneer in the country for importing wood certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) instead of relying on conventional manual wood sourcing methods. HATIL firmly believes that sustainable practices can mitigate the impact of climate change on the environment, and they have been dedicated to this cause since their inception.

The FSC, a non-profit organization with a mission to protect and conserve global forests and biodiversity, certifies the wood used in HATIL’s furniture. By sourcing from these FSC-certified forests, HATIL contributes to environmental balance by ensuring the protection of vital forested areas and biodiversity.
HATIL’s commitment to sustainability extends beyond wood harvesting. They employ state-of-the-art technology throughout their production process, aiming to minimize wastage at every stage. HATIL’s Coral system diligently collects every particle of wood dust through an anti-pollution mechanism, transforming it into briquettes for reuse as fuel. Unlike industries that traditionally rely on coal or oil, leading to significant carbon footprints and greenhouse gas emissions, HATIL sets a precedent by reducing waste and harnessing solar energy, ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
