Red Square has a policy of using materials that are from sustainable sources in order to reduce environmental damage, destruction of wildlife habitats and effects on the climate. For example, Red Square only uses wood from sustainable forests, where new growth equals or exceeds the amount harvested. Whenever possible, it also sources products made from recycled materials.
