Explore the wider ecological impact of composite siding.<\/h2><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Since the dawn of man, we’ve been using the natural world around us to shield ourselves from the elements. And what’s more natural than trees? As soon as we realised we could cut them down and turn their wood into planks for our shelters, we’ve been exploring every application of timber. Over time, it’s become a staple of many homes – a popular siding option many turn to when looking to enhance their property.<\/p>\n
The only problem is that our forests are suffering for it. The timber industry is starting to take advantage of our trees, all to create siding that may not even stand the test of time.

According to research undertaken by Live Science, over half of the trees in the Amazon basin are between 300 and 1,000 years old. According to One Tree Planted, 80,000 hectares of trees are felled every day. That’s approximately 15 billion trees every year!<\/p>\n<\/div>
