TerraMai Reclaimed Wood

TerraMai is a top notch reclaimed wood company which was introduced to 3Rings through the Ecosystems BADA table. The green revolution has created a lot of interesting sustainable materials, but none are more inherently beautiful than reclaimed wood.

Reclaimed wood offers both aesthetic and environmental benefits. Over the course of time, wood becomes more dimensionally stable as well as gaining character with age. Obtaining previously used wood discourages cutting of new trees, especially old growth and exotic woods.

TerraMai was originally founded in the historic lumber mountain town of McCloud, California in 1991. Originally the company focused on regional domestic woods, but in 2001 they began reclaiming tropical hardwoods from Southeast Asia and more recently South America.

While TerraMai offers wood from across the globe, they have the ability to source wood from within 500 miles of almost anywhere in the US, allowing their reclaimed woods to be LEED qualified. In addition to saving trees, reclaiming wood also offsets emissions associated with the logging, transportation, processing and milling of new wood.
