Our values

Purpose and commitment

Because it is important for us to be proud of our work when we return from the office or from an assignment, ETICWOOD pays especial attention to having a positive impact on the world of tomorrow, by contributing in our own way every day to more sustainable forestry, to the biodiversity conservation and the fight against social inequalities.

Vertical integration

As our projects are integrated and involve many players, ETICWOOD is careful to propose and set up transversal and inclusive associations that guarantee beneficial, profitable and fair opportunities for each link in the value chains, from upstream to downstream.

Pragmatism

We don't simply produce documents, we are actively involved in finding and implementing practical solutions that deliver concrete and positive results. ETICWOOD favours small, credible actions that respond to a need and make a modest impact, rather than grand concepts that never see the light of day.

Enthusiasm and dynamism

Because we are convinced of the importance of pooling everyone’s skills, passions and ideas to address current and future environmental and social issues, we share our positive energy and our exuberant dynamism with all our partners in the search for and implementation of solutions.
