15. Life on land
Life on land is quite essentially the foundation for life on this planet. The goal is therefore to protect, restore and promote sustainable use of our ecosystems, To HORN our primary focus is to ensure sustainable management of our forests to avoid deforestation and loss of natural habitats and land degradation.

We therefore believe that our 100% FSC policy at HORN is a great start to ensure we are promoting the implementation of sustainable management of forests, halt deforestation and restore degraded forest. To increase afforestation and reforestation we will be looking into how we can ensure a longer lifetime for our wood based materials through improved maintenance guidance and service solutions including take-back options. In addition the FSC management standards require forest managers to prevent deforestation, avoid forest degradation and maintain biodiversity to obtain their FSC certification.
