Caring for the environment isn't new for us — it has shaped HARO for more than 150 years.
Sustainability isn't a recent addition for HARO — as a family business now in its fifth generation, thinking ahead and treating resources responsibly has shaped how we work for over 150 years. A real timber floor is one of the most sustainable surfaces you can choose: it stores carbon, it lasts decades, and at the end of a long life it returns to nature.
HARO was the first parquet brand in Europe to be 100% PEFC-certified — a guarantee that our wood comes from responsibly and sustainably managed forests. We use the whole tree, and recycle the wood waste from production as fuel in our own combined heat and power station.
Our German production runs on green electricity and is designed to be low-waste, combining the craft of five generations with state-of-the-art, resource-efficient processes. Building floors that last for decades is, in itself, one of the most sustainable things we can do.
Many HARO floors carry the Blue Angel — the world's first environmental seal — awarded to low-emission products that are genuinely healthy to live with. Beautiful underfoot, and kind to the air you breathe.
Every HARO product comes with a sustainability product passport that brings all of its certificates and environmental credentials together at a glance — so you can specify and buy with complete transparency.
Closer to home, HARO Flooring Australia supports tree-planting initiatives — a small way of giving back to the landscapes our floors come home to.
Sustainability has shaped our company for over 150 years — from responsibly sourced PEFC timber and renewable energy in production, to native trees planted here in Australia.
Over 150 years of environmental responsibility — renewable energy and intelligent, low-waste production.
