Sustainable Forestry and FSC Certified Products
Flooring the Future with Acarkon
Modern living spaces are no longer satisfied with just being stylish. For today’s conscious users, the value of a space is measured by what it says to nature, humanity, and the future. Therefore, decoration is moving beyond an aesthetic choice and transforming into an ethical stance.
Acarkon is a powerful brand that places the concept of sustainable forestry at the heart of its production. With FSC-certified products and eco-friendly technologies, we build responsible living spaces, not just floors. Every product we offer in our Production facility and showrooms is a tangible reflection of a promise made to nature.
What is Sustainable Forestry and Why is it Vital?
Sustainable forestry means managing forest resources not only for today's needs but also by considering the rights of future generations. The main goals of this approach are:
- Preventing the depletion of forests.
- Protecting the balance of the natural ecosystem.
- Saving wood production from uncontrolled consumption.
While millions of hectares of forests disappear globally every year, Acarkon takes a clear stand against this trend. Because we know that forests are not just raw materials; they are the breath of the world.
What is an FSC Certificate? What Does It Mean for Acarkon?
The FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certificate is an international standard certifying that wood and wood-based products are produced in an environmentally, socially, and economically responsible manner. For Acarkon, FSC is not just a certificate; it is the cornerstone of our production philosophy.
Acarkon’s FSC-Certified Products Guarantee:
- Protection of the Natural Cycle: It is mandatory to plant a new tree for every one harvested. Forests are renewed, not exploited.
- Legal and Auditable Supply: Illegal logging, unregistered production, and unethical trade chains are completely eliminated.
- Respect for Biodiversity: A forest is more than just trees. FSC protects the entire ecosystem, from vegetation to wildlife and the rights of local people.
Why is Certification Vital When Choosing Wood Flooring?
The color, texture, or model of a parquet might look impressive at first glance. However, the real questions are: Where does it come from? How is it produced? Does it affect human health?
Even if non-certified products seem attractive, they can lead to:
- Uncontrolled deforestation.
- High chemical emissions.
- Low durability.
Acarkon’s FSC-certified floors represent the right choice, both aesthetically and conscientiously.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What does the FSC certificate on Acarkon products mean?
The FSC certificate documents that the wood-based products we offer at Acarkon are obtained from forests that meet environmental standards, do not disrupt the ecosystem, and are legally audited. It is an international guarantee that no harm was done to nature in the production chain.
Why is Ceramin technology more environmentally friendly than traditional flooring?
Ceramin, developed by Classen, has a mineral-based structure that is completely PVC-free. Due to its low carbon footprint during production and its 100% recyclability, it is considered the most ecological flooring solution for sustainable decoration projects.
Are Silva Moss wall panels real plants? How are they maintained?
Yes, the mosses used in our Silva Moss series are completely real. They undergo a special stabilization process to maintain their vitality and soft texture for years. They require no watering, pruning, or sunlight, which also contributes to water conservation.
How do Acarkon floors affect indoor air quality?
Our products are selected to meet E1 emission standards. This indicates that the formaldehyde and VOC levels released into the room are within safe limits for human health, allowing you to breathe cleaner air in your living spaces.
Are sustainable flooring products less durable?
On the contrary, products manufactured with sustainable forestry and advanced technology (like Ceramin) are structurally much more durable. High-density wood from managed forests and new-generation mineral-based coatings offer high resistance to wear and tear.
