The tree gives us the barrel, and now the barrel is replanting the tree: for each barrel delivered, Tonnellerie CADUS has committed to planting a tree in France!

This is a major innovation in the world of cooperage, a generous and altruistic contribution to nature and one which every customer may be proud of. In partnership with a Burgundy nursery, a French leader in re-forestation with a policy of compensatory planting, Tonnellerie CADUS will replant sessile and common oak in several regions in France.

What is more natural than planting the raw material that goes into making the barrels?

Why are we planting trees?

In France, public forests are in decline. By replanting forests and woods, we are:

–          Fighting against climate change by creating stocks of CO2

–          Halting desertification by hydrating the ground

–          Preserving biodiversity that provides an infinite number of ecological services

–          Developing regional economy

Ecocert certification

The independent organization, Ecocert Environnement, internationally renowned for its forestry and organic farming certification, monitors and checks that the trees are alive and maintained, that the number of trees planted is as prescribed, as is the density and area of planting; and that the growth of the future forest is assured.
