FSC-Certified Sustainably Grown Oak and Ash Veneer Furniture
Abundant Earth now offers home and office furniture that is easy and fun to put
together and uses FSC (Forest Stewardship Council)
certified sustainably grown and
milled Oak and Ash Veneer. These modular, reversible designs create numerous possibilities
for media and office arrangements and can be reconfigured numerous times without
affecting the integrity of the unit. In a short amount of time, you can build an entire system
made with no tools, no screws or
bolts, and no hard labor. The pieces are created with a tab/slot design
which interlocks and secures each piece in place, so the end result is a strong, sturdy
and fabulous looking furnishing.
This
furniture is made using the finest sustainably harvested Oak and Ash plywood
veneer, which is processed in FSC certified mills (the most stringent and
widely accepted environmental certification available today), over an MDF core
and finished with a water-based no-VOC lacquer finish. The Oak Veneer comes in a
wheat finish and the Ash Veneer in an espresso finish. (pictured left).

an attachment piece to lock it to an adjacent desk to form a single, solid unit.

24"W x 11"D shelf. The Peninsula can hold up to three shelves either 24"W x 11"D
or 24"W x 17"D.
The Extension (pictured right) is similar to a
Peninsula, but its outer edge allows
additional components to be added to make your workspace even larger. The
Extension includes an attachment piece to lock it to an adjacent desk to form a
single, solid unit. The
Extension is
30"W x 27"D x 32" H and comes with one 24"W x 11"D
shelf. The Extension can hold up to three shelves either 24"W x 11"D or
24"W x 17"D.
The

is designed to pull two desks together to create larger workspaces for two or
more users. The Bridge includes two attachment pieces to lock it to

and comes with one 24"W x 11"D shelf. Bridges can hold up to three shelves
either 24"W x 11"D or 24"W x 17"D.
Extra
Shelves and Accessories:
You can order extra shelves to fit under
your desk as well as for any of the Desk Extenders. There are also two
different accessory shelves available that add to the usefulness of your
desk. The 29" Accessory Shelf*
(shown right) fits nicely on the top rail of your desk providing extra storage
space for various accessories, CDs, books, etc. The dimensions are
approximately 29"W x 8"D x 10"H.

The 17" Side-Mount Accessory Shelf (shown

printers or even a tower CPU. The Side-Mount Shelf installs in one of the
available shelf slots on the outside of desks, peninsulas, extensions or bridges. This Side shelf is
approximately
17"L x 10"D x 4H. Just

ordering and choose the number of shelves or accessories that you would like for each item.

x 9"D.
The hutch easily attaches to the straight desk, providing convenient storage so your desktop work space
can stay organized! The hutch is reversible in design, and the wide lower shelf can be placed

to accommodate just about any combination of computers, monitors, peripherals,
or even books and binders. The shelves and vertical panels have cable pass-throughs
for clutter-free wiring.

together easily and lock into one another for
further strength. The easy-to-follow instructions that come with each
design will take you step by step through a fun, fast and easy assembly.
FSC Plywood and MDF Furniture Facts:
- Producing our FSC plywood and MDF (Medium-Density Fiberboard) furniture
yields many times more usable wood from a log versus
solid lumber.
- Because it is so durable, our furniture has greater potential to outlast solid wood furniture.
- The energy utilized in converting wood from a raw material to a finished
product is minuscule when compared to any other industrial material. Using
wood saves energy!
