Tropical Salvage: Giving Old Wood New Purpose

Tropical Salvage is one of those business models that just makes sense. This company salvages wood in Indonesia, including reclaimed demolition salvage and mining “entombed wood”, and uses it to do business that creates positive economic, social and environmental change.

Tropical Salvage turns salvaged wood into furniture, handicrafts, moldings, and accessories. The operation brings long-term, sustainable economic opportunity to local artisans while reclaiming natural resources for a longer life of purpose.

More than just business, Tropical Salvage raises awareness about the importance of preserving tropical ecosystems to both its customers and employees.

Tropical Salvage offers a conduit to access accurate information about logging industry practices in southeast Asia and an opportunity to buy responsibly, thereby, choosing reform of needlessly destructive policies and practices.

Employees in areas dependent on tropical forests find gainful employment in a sustainable endeavor that doesn’t disturb natural ecosystems. They find themselves part of the solution in saving old-growth forests. Customers discover that their consumer choices can have a positive impact on the global economy and the environment with sustainable furniture choices.
