Certified countertops

In 2015, HORN began developing the market’s first certified worktop collection: the GREEN Collection.
With the GREEN Collection, we wanted to offer a range of products with third-party certified properties. The individual certifications confirm that the products meet established requirements within the areas covered by the certification schemes. Consequently, the collection included a wide range of both budget and high-end products, which had been tested to ensure a healthy indoor environment for the end user and improved production methods throughout the value chain. The collection was also tested for harmful substances and met strict environmental requirements.
It still does.
But today, the GREEN Collection is the HORN Collection.
As our product range is extensive, the GREEN Collection was our approach to increasingly integrating sustainable development into our entire range. We have now reached the point where a development journey is planned for all our products – regardless of which product line you are interested in. And, most importantly, we have a plan to continuously gain a better understanding of what can improve our overall environmental footprint across the business as a whole.

Certifications

FSC® - Forest Stewardship Council®

Our main purchases consist of wood-based products, and deforestation contributes significantly to global greenhouse gas emissions. We therefore work with FSC-certified materials, where the certification documents the traceability of the certified timber throughout the supply chain. As early as 2010, the entire HORN timber range was FSC®-certified; although timber is a renewable resource, we must ensure that forests are managed responsibly to protect our ecosystems.
FSC® certification ensures that HORN’s wood-based products come from responsibly managed forests.
FSC certification documents the traceability of certified timber throughout the supply chain. FSC also sets requirements relating to, amongst other things, forest management, workers’ rights, local communities and the conservation of areas of particular importance.
