Our environmental efforts Over the last five of years, we have been vertically integrating our company by adding several automatic mills and now with ten Italian Kiln dryers, enabling us to source different species of woods. This keeps our raw material sourcing unique and our product line fresh. For instance, products made under our sustainable woods collections are handcrafted from Mango wood. This timber comes from the Pacific and Atlantic coasts of Mexico. IFD recently purchased dozens of acres of Mango tree farmlands that were no longer productive for the food industry and turned them into beautiful furniture pieces. By taking advantage of other industry's by-products we lower the impact on our environment. This wood has a beautiful grain and its natural color varies depending on the richness of the soil where each tree grows. Reforestation project Implemented in 2016, this reforestation project is privately funded by International Furniture Direct and grown on factory-owned land. The current project will allow for trees to be harvested as early as 8 years and every year after. IFD has hired local experts to run the project that is planting 45,000 trees every year for at least 14 years. Tree species include: Parota, Mahogany, Habillo, Rosewood, and Primavera. IFD is the largest Mexican manufacturer of furniture with almost 3 million square feet of production. Two factories, 4 US warehouses. The product is solid wood, hand finished with a green story as we plant, harvest and replant all the wood we manufacture. All the metal hardware and accents are forged and created in our factories. Our drawer glides are commercially graded and we have addressed all tipping issues. We invite you to be part of the IFD family and experience our products!
