Reclaimed Wood - Flooring
Wood floors are very attractive and highly sought after. The following companies are creating beautiful floors using wood reclaimed from buildings, barns, old logging roads, and even underwater; thus reducing waste and potential deforestation.
Mountain Lumber Co.*Finalist
For over thirty years, Mountain Lumber has been a dedicated contributor to green building. Our philosophy has always been that trees are not simply wood – they are living organisms that have more beauty and utility standing than felled for flooring. We do our part to curtail deforestation by finding lumber that was cut centuries ago and recycling it for your projects.

Logs End *Finalist
Logs End recovers lost timbers from rivers, lakes and streams that were roadways during the logging era for the production of our wide plank flooring. Not only have we adopted a “zero waste” policy for the lumber we harvest, but we are truly committed to the “environmentally sound” retrieval of submerged logs and deadheads.
