Sustainable building materials and green production techniques are increasingly recognized by the public as more than just an added value to a home or commercial project - many owners and builders now see these sustainable solutions as essential.

At Damschen Wood, we use sustainable materials whenever possible, and we have the design and production expertise to make any project as sustainable as you want it. We can provide you with the latest and best green choices for your custom cabinets or commercial space. Our design team can maximize the use of space in your project, minimizing the use of materials and heighten the efficiency and functionality of your cabinets and fixtures.

Our premier sustainable project was created in partnership with Live Green Live Smart for their Sustainable House in Minnetonka, MN. This home - which you can learn all about on their website - was recently certified LEED Platinum - the first of its kind in Minnesota, and the first remodeled home in the country to receive this high certification. Damschen made custom cabinetry and built-ins for this project, using FSC maple veneer with an FSC plywood core, water-based adhesives, and no-VOC eco-friendly stains and varnishes. We also fabricated the first FSC Richlite countertops - a paper-based material - in the country for this home. The photos to the left highlight some of our work in the Sustainable House.

We are proud to be part of this landmark project, and now we can help you make your project sustainable, whether it's for LEED certification or just your own piece of mind. FSC, Richlite, bamboo, no-VOC - Damschen Wood can help.
