It is hard yet flexible and very beautiful. Mango wood comes from the same tree as the much-loved mango fruit. However, it's a project in that I invest a lot of time and also quite some money.Įventually, my dream is to one day turn this passion project into my full-time job and provide even more helpful information. It is a passion project of mine and I love to share helpful information with you to make a positive impact on the world and society.

Or, for many of our posts, we also link to our favorite books on that topic so that you can get a much more holistic overview than one single blog post could provide.Īnd when there is an affiliate program for these products, we sign up for it. For example, when we wrote a post about the environmental impact of long showers, we came across an EPA recommendation to use WaterSense showerheads.

And that we love to link back to where we found all the information for each of our posts. Some of these include the Jarda, Versi, Old Door, Harvest, Scando and Samson, as well as several occasional pieces.You may have noticed that Impactful Ninja is all about providing helpful information to make a positive impact on the world and society. Many of our signature hardwood pieces are made with sustainable mango wood. The wood has a wide variation of grain and comes in a kaleidoscope of colours including, brown, tan, golden yellow, green, black and in some cases pink. No two pieces of Mango wood are exactly the same and that's another reason why we love it. Why cut down trees that can be left standing? This relatively new business exchange has not only helped the Western world manufacture furniture sustainably, but it also supports the local mango farmers who often struggle financially in an increasingly industrialised India.Īlthough selecting furniture pieces that truly fit your home and personal style is very important, we believe that selecting furniture based on its origins may be equally important. These days' mango farmers can earn extra income by selling their unwanted mango timber to guys like us. In the past discarded mango trees were often just left to rot, adding to Co2 emissions. If you do the math, that's a whole lot of mango wood.
When their fast growing trees reach maturity, they lose their fruit barring abilities and are usually cut down to make way for new seedlings. Heralded as India's favourite fruit, nearly 75 million tons of juicy mangos are produced in India every year. Well for those of you wondering, we can give you at least 75 million good reasons.
Well, they are both by-products of the mango tree of course.Ĭustomers often ask us why we use mango wood rather than more traditional timbers like oak or mahogany. What does a delicious, ripe mango have in common with our signature hardwood tables?
