Sustainable wood

Wood used for trophies can either be wood from sustainable sources or wood that is reused: for example turning wood salvaged from an old ship into an award for the fishing industry. Wood can be turned, carved, printed onto and engraved. We offer a sustainable wood trophy in our Go! range.
