"Penofin-Performance Coatings (PCI) has
made a commitment to the environment. Our use of
Brazilian Rosewood Oil for a base not only creates
a stain that penetrates deeper and makes your
wood last longer, but this carefully harvested
Amazonian crop guarantees continued jobs to an
area that is currently destroying its ecosystem.
Brazilian Rosewood Oil is harvested from
the pod of the Oiticica Tree which is carefully
gathered and then pressed and purified. This benign
process does not harm the environment. This oil is
found on trees that grow on the dry plains and is the essential
ingredient of Penofin. No other wood finishing
product contains it.
We believe in keeping all of the
environments we come in contact with directly
or indirectly, safe. Be they working
environments or living environments.
We believe in creating a safe
environment for our workers. In our
manufacturing process no wastewaters are
generated.
We believe in the continued search to
find sustainably harvested ingredients that occur
naturally and will provide jobs to areas that are
currently destroying their habitats in order to
maintain employment.
We believe that one way of caring for
our environment is by wisely using our limited
wood resources to create things of beauty,
function and permanence. Penofin guarantees the
preservation of manufactured wood items.
We have a responsibility to make our
world a place that we want our children and
grandchildren to grow up in. The American Indians
had a way of looking at the decisions they made -
how will it affect the seventh generation. We want to make
decisions that will positively affect the seventh
generation.
What we build with our limited
resources should be cared for with
appreciation. In doing so, we'll help assure
our continued existence on this Earth."
