Bear County and the environment We want to utilize the environment and the means available as responsibly as possible. This is why, when we develop products, we think further than the present and we recognize the need for a good future, for ourselves and for the generations to come. Bear County and society We like to help people to enjoy their gardens and the great outdoors. In addition, we as a company also create employment opportunities for many people and offer them a means of existence. We are certainly aware of the fact that our actions influence our environment and society. This is why our objectives include good codes of conduct with regard to everyone with whom we work, society and the environment. Wood and CO2-reduction Trees from responsibly managed woods absorb a life-long harmful CO2 from the air and convert this into oxygen. For example, when a tree is processed into a Bear County garden house, then the CO2 which is stored in the wood is removed from the atmosphere for a long time. At the same time, in that same forest, a new tree is planted which again stores CO2, thereby optimally reducing the amount of CO2 in the air. And because not a single other material needs so little energy for its production, wood from sustainably managed forests is one of the most environmentally friendly building materials.
