We all know the business world is full of competition but sometimes two companies form a partnership that is mutually beneficial.
This is exactly what has happened between Dams and Sonae. Dams have been located in Knowsley just North of Liverpool for approximately forty years. Several years ago Sonae, an international supplier of high quality particle board, built a recycling/manufacturing plant right on our doorstep.
Since then both companies have worked together for a better environment and have both benefited from this mutual partnership. This has also helped to reduce the ‘Desk Miles’ of most of our products.
Dams use of recycled materials helps prevent the felling of over 400,000 trees per year.
Each day at least 80,000 acres (32,300 ha) of forest disappear from the Earth. At least another 80,000 acres (32,300 ha) of forest are degraded. Despite increased awareness of the importance of these forests, deforestation rates have not slowed.
Analysis of figures from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) shows that tropical deforestation rates increased 8.5% from 2000-2005 when compared with the 1990s, while loss of primary forests may have expanded by 25% over the same period.
