Sustainable wood

All furniture and wooden home accessories from Pilat & Pilat are produced in Nord End. They have their own manufacturing plant in Bosnia, employing some 40 craftspeople on a full-time basis.  Pilat & Pilat like to buy their wood privately from small-scale operators. For many generations, orchards have been an important source of income for the elderly in the woody regions of Bosnia. On average, families have about two hectares of woodland with dozens of fruit trees, such as walnut and cherry trees. After many years of harvesting the fruits, the trees are finally given the chop. Three trees will get a family, often consisting of three generations, comfortably through winter.

The younger generation always takes care of new plantings and the maintenance of the orchard. A personal hallmark of care and dedication is automatically passed on to the growing wood from one generation to the next.  From family orchard to Famylje Collection. A logical and sensible process.
