Timber

Wood's versatility - capable of being bent, carved, sawn and split - and it's capacity to store carbon make it hard for us to imagine a better designed material.
Despite this,  the UK's dependence on imported timber and the practice of mono-culture forestry means it isn't without environmental concern. As a consequence Marks' proudly advocates for the use of British-grown timber, and is one of the only furniture makers in the UK to hold a Grown in Britain Chain of Custody Certification, guaranteeing the provenance of the timber and that it has been sourced from mixed, healthy woodlands.
