At Nogent***, the choice of materials is not limited to performance. It is also part of a responsible approach focused on the conservation of natural resources.
That is why the wood used to manufacture our handles comes from PEFC-certified forests (certificate no. 10-31-3657). This essential guarantee enables us to combine product quality, traceability and respect for the environment.
Through this certification, Nogent*** reaffirms its commitment to offering sustainable tools, designed with a more responsible approach.
The PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) label is an international certification that guarantees that timber comes from sustainably managed forests.
In practical terms, this means that forestry operations adhere to several fundamental principles:
- the renewal of resources
- the preservation of biodiversity
- respect for ecosystems
- responsible working conditions
This certification ensures full traceability of the timber, from the forest to the final product.
In ranges that use wood, such as Nogent Iconic or Affidenté® Naturel, the handles are made from PEFC-certified wood (certificate no. 10-31-3657).
The selected wood species — hornbeam, beech and wild cherry — are chosen for their mechanical properties, durability and natural aesthetic appeal.
Beyond their performance, these woods reflect a strong environmental commitment: to use a renewable resource sourced from sustainably managed forests.
PEFC certification covers not only the forest but the entire supply chain.
It guarantees that the timber used in Nogent products is identified, inspected and tracked at every stage.
This traceability ensures complete transparency regarding the origin of the materials and helps to build user confidence.
The use of PEFC-certified timber (certificate no. 10-31-3657) forms part of a comprehensive initiative led by Nogent to reduce its environmental impact.
This approach is based on several principles:
- prioritising sustainable materials
- reducing the carbon footprint
- promoting short supply chains
- designing products built to last
PEFC certification 10-31-3657 thus complements the brand’s commitments to responsible production.
A concrete commitment to more sustainable cooking, without compromising on quality.
