The European Federation of the Parquet Industry’s (FEPs) Living on Wood campaign has been boosted by the backing of eight Dutch parquet floor manufacturers.

Albers Parketgroothandel, Dekora Parket, Inpa Parket Vloeren, MJD Parket, Parketfabriek Lieverdink, Van Kesteren Parketfabriek en Houthandel, Grönloh Parket and Beter Hout have joined the drive, giving them license to use the campaign’s Real Wood logo on their products.

The eight Dutch manufacturers bring the total number of companies signed up to Living on Wood to 43, which FEP said is a “most encouraging result in the short period since the introduction of the project”.

Living on Wood is a Europe-wide initiative to promote the use of wooden floors throughout the home to consumers, with the website, www.realwood.EU, offering information and guidance on specifying and choosing a parquet floor.
