Whole Forest

Whole Forest’s mission is to protect the last remnants of Ecuador’s threatened rainforests. Our carbon-negative wall tiles, flooring, tables, and countertops showcase the rich diversity of hardwoods found in the forests we sustainably manage.

Every product sold helps support livelihoods in the forest communities we partner with, which slows deforestation. This protects the forest’s biodiversity and prevents massive carbon emissions. Our unwavering standards for sustainability make it possible for our products to offset the embodied energy of your project, ultimately lowering your impact on climate change.

Established in 2008, Whole Forest is actively pulling threatened forests out of the pathway to deforestation by creating a strong economic incentive for forest families to preserve their forests as an economic asset. “We do that by creating many local jobs in forestry, manufacturing and business administration,” [Peter Pinchot] says. Before, local foresters made $3 a day, now they made 10 times that by working with the Whole Forest projects.
