Ecologically Sound: Ecovillage Chooses Broxwood Timber Windows & Doors |
Broxwood supplies energy efficient timber windows and doors to the Findhorn Ecovillage – a pioneering ecological living development in the UK.
One of the first and largest developments of its kind in the UK, the Findhorn Ecovillage is a tangible demonstration of the links between the spiritual, social, ecological and economic aspects of life and is a synthesis of the very best of current thinking on human habitats. Findhorn ecovillage is at the heart of the largest single intentional community in the UK and provides a major centre of adult education serving 9,000 visitors a year from over 50 countries. It has successfully reduced its ecological footprint through the development of ecologically-benign buildings and use of alternative sources of energy such as wind turbines and solar energy. The village also boasts a comprehensive recycling scheme.
Broxwood’s bespoke timber windows and doors offer the ideal solution for Findhorn’s ecologically-sound buildings. As well as offering a sustainable option, the natural timber windows meet passive house standards thus maximizing solar gain and enhancing overall energy efficiency.
