Environment-FriendlyMeranti (Shorea sp.) is a commercially valuable tree but is not an endangered or protected species. Most makers of wood furniture using Meranti have a certification of approval from the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) which is the most respected and credible certifying body on wood sourcing in the world.

The FSC defines and encourages sustainable forestry logging and replanting practices, which act to counter the exploitative deforestation nature of commercial logging. |
