Crafting a Greener Future, One Window and Door at a Time
The Joinery Network and its partners are committed to reducing the carbon footprint of their components and manufacturing processes, while extending the lifespan of the finished Lignum products.
The Lignum timber window and door system has been developed to minimise waste, cutting, sanding, and painting typically required by joinery manufacturers.
Delivering practical sustainability is more than a policy, it’s part of how we design, source, and build.
Our licenced manufacturering partners use certified sustainable timber and thoughtful processes to lower our impact without compromising on quality. Many are using renewable energy sources to further reduce their environmental footprint.
Responsibly Sourced Timber
The wood used to manufacture Lignum products is from sustainably managed forests, certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). This ensures the wood in your windows and doors meets strict environmental and ethical standards, protecting natural ecosystems for generations to come.
Sustainable Manufacturing Methods
Our UK manufacturing partners are investing in lowering carbon emmissions. These measures include highly-efficient machinery and renewable energy.
Large-scale solar and battery storage systems are powering operations cleanly and efficiently. Some workshops now meet up to half their energy needs using solar, ensuring consistent production with minimal carbon footprint, even in low light conditions.
A Thoughtful Place to Work and Create
Our network of workshops isn’t just about production, it’s about place. Some are purposefully located in green spaces, or close to community land, with active efforts to support biodiversity, local recreation, and regional food sustainability through partnerships with local farmers and organisations.
Energy Saving Products for Life
Choosing timber isn’t just a design decision, it’s a smart one. Timber is a natural insulator, and our products are engineered to meet modern energy standards. Combine this with vacuum glazing options like PassivGlas™, and you’ll benefit from performance that rivals or exceeds triple glazing, keeping homes warmer, quieter, and more efficient.
Minimising Waste, Maximising Use
We’re focused on reducing waste throughout production. From lean manufacturing methods that limit offcuts, to recycling wood dust into fuel briquettes, every element is considered. Our joinery processes are designed to be efficient, low impact, and future ready.
Built to Last, Designed to Endure
A truly sustainable product is one that doesn’t need replacing. That’s why our timber windows and doors are built with longevity in mind. With the right care, they’ll serve homes beautifully for decades, reducing the need for replacements and preserving resources over time.
Supporting Communities, Inspiring Change
Many of our partners play an active role in their local communities, whether that’s maintaining green spaces, supporting education, or sharing their sustainability journey with the next generation. It’s all part of our mission to lead by example.
