Tripp Trapp® ` is made in Europe, close to the vast forests where beech and oak have grown abundantly for centuries. Because these are natural resources, Stokke sources the wood responsibly following two main principals of sustainability. Firstly, the wood is traceable back to the forest from which is it derived and Stokke requires all suppliers to comply with strict rules based on long term forest management plans. These are controlled by competent local authorities supporting sustainable forestry. Secondly, manufacturing takes place close to the raw materials to lessen transport time, which in turn reduces emissions.
