At Home Santo, together with our partner factories in Denmark and Poland, we put quality at the top of our list of priorities. FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certification ensures that the wood used in manufacturing comes from responsibly managed forests. The use of wood from FSC forests in Northern Scandinavia for furniture production is a great way to support sustainable forestry practices while also producing high-quality furniture.
Pine trees from this region are known for their strength and durability due to their slow growth under difficult climatic conditions. The wood from these trees is ideally suited for our solid Pine ranges of furniture, as it is strong and able to withstand wear and tear. Additionally, the slow growth of the trees results in wood that has a tight, even grain, which is prized for its aesthetic appeal. The use of FSC-certified Pine wood from Northern Scandinavia can help to ensure that furniture production is both sustainable and high-quality, resulting in pieces that are both environmentally friendly and aesthetically pleasing.
Our partner factories personally double-check the timber at the source so only the best material is brought to the factories, and from there, everything is made and packed in-house.
Our designers work on every detail making sure every item is fit for purpose. Several checks are made through production, ensuring the end product is second to none. All products come complete with easy-to-follow assembly instructions, these have been drawn and produced in-house then tried and tested by our own staff.
For products with a stained finish, we only use environment-friendly materials, with UV or water-based varnish, paint, and stains.
Should any customer have a problem with any item we supply, we operate a free replacement parts service through our UK-based warehouse and office.
