Balsa is a wonderful natural product. It’s properties are outstanding and for many years Balsa serves as an ideal construction material for multiple applications. Produced by mother earth, grown in the most sustainable way possible and given back to various markets to contribute to our “Let’s plant a better future” mission.
Our balsa grows in two world regions close to the equator – Ecuador and Papua New Guinea. While thousands of hectares of our own forest plantations are FSC®-certified and follow strict forestry management regulations, our product BALTEK® SBC is the first carbon neutral core material in the world sequestering more greenhouse gas (GHG) than those emitted during its production.
The recyclability and circularity of the biodegradable balsa is just natural and so, it’s literally from the very beginning the “greenest core material on the market”.
Producing Balsa is our core, investing in our sites, our employees, the communities around our plantations is our conviction for now and for future generations!
