At BarkClad, sustainability isn’t just an aspect of our business—it’s the foundation. As a proud certified member of the Western North Carolina Green Building Council, we hold ourselves to stringent environmental standards, ensuring our practices contribute positively to the ecological health of our region. In our operations, we are committed to a no-waste policy that respects both the resource and the landscape from which it comes.
We collaborate closely with local loggers, engaging in a practice that allows us to harvest bark from trees already designated for the furniture and plywood industries. This symbiotic relationship ensures that no trees are felled solely for their bark, thus preserving the natural forests of our Appalachian home. By repurposing what would otherwise be waste materials, BarkClad offers a product deeply rooted in the principles of sustainability and environmental stewardship.
Our method not only reduces waste but also maximizes the usage of each tree. This approach allows BarkClad to offer a range of natural bark products that are not only environmentally responsible but also of the highest quality. The bark, once destined for disposal, is transformed into durable, beautiful siding that embodies the essence of the Appalachian wilderness and brings a piece of nature’s majesty to homes and buildings across the country.
In addition to our sustainable harvesting practices, BarkClad is continuously exploring innovative ways to decrease our carbon footprint and enhance the eco-friendliness of our products. We are dedicated to improving our processes and products through ongoing research and development, ensuring that we remain at the forefront of sustainable building practices.
Through these efforts, BarkClad aims to inspire a shift in the building materials industry, advocating for a model where beautiful, high-quality products are produced in harmony with the environment. We invite architects, builders, and homeowners to join us in this sustainable venture, choosing materials that not only elevate the aesthetic of any project but also contribute positively to the preservation of our planet.
By choosing BarkClad, you’re not just selecting a siding product—you’re supporting a philosophy. A philosophy that champions sustainability, celebrates natural beauty, and respects the environment from which it draws its inspiration. Let BarkClad’s poplar bark siding be the hallmark of your commitment to a greener, more sustainable future.
