Origin of ayous
Our ayous is OLB certified, which guarantees full traceability of the origin of wood, sustainable forest management and 100% legal and verified sourcing of hardwoods such as ayous and fraké from their own Cameroonian tenure.
The highest requirement is traceability. Each tree must have its own ID stating the height and width of the tree. GPS coordinates have to be assigned to every tree, which are then indicated on a map. All of this leads up to infallible traceability of each cut tree.
OLB is a licenced European system for verifying the legality of wood.
