Designing Your Home for Health

"We are excited to change the face of reclaimed wood industry with the Sunset Collection™, says Jered Slusser, Pioneer Millworks sales manager. “Repurposed wood doesn't have to be rustic and rough; it can also have a clean and smooth appearance. We have designed this collection to highlight our rescued oak's dependability, inherent detailing, and our safe specialized finishes that today's consumers demand."
Manufactured at our employee-owned mill in Farmington, New York, the Sunset Collection™ is finished with an all-natural plant-based UV Cured Hard-Wax Oil in seven proprietary hues. Our UV curing ensures quick drying and easy installation that is effortless to maintain. Most importantly our finishes are durable and safe for people, animals, and the planet.

With a contemporary focus on eco-friendly building materials one major emphasis of consumers has been towards interior air quality and the impact it can have on their family, friends, and pets’ long term. “Off-gassing,” from synthetic chemicals (VOC’s) present in building materials impacts consumer choices in flooring, siding, insulation, and finishes inside and even outside of the home.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency, indoor air can be two to five times more polluted than outdoor air. One of the main sources of this pollution is home furnishings and building materials, which can release countless VOCs into the air.
VOCs are the gases released from certain solids or liquids and can be the source of that “new” smell you notice with recently purchased or installed paint, flooring, or furniture. While the “new” scent fades away over time and use, the “off-gassing” from these materials can continue for an extended period of time. Products with UL GREENGUARD GOLD certification help to identify products that release fewer VOCs into the spaces where we spend the most time.

UL GREENGUARD has been establishing indoor air quality standards for indoor products, environments and buildings since 2001, and certifies only products which have met their stringent chemical emission requirements.
Our Sunset Collection is one of our 22 engineered products robust and safe enough to receive UL GREENGUARD GOLD certification. Thoughtfully tested to meet the intensive standards for UL GREENGUARD GOLD, the Sunset Collection matches its high craft aesthetics with a deep awareness of consumer health. Meeting this high standard of UL GREENGUARD GOLD means that that any glues, substrates, and finishes used on our engineered wood products will not off gas.
With Pioneer Millwork’s Sunset Collection your family can be ensured a quality reclaimed wood product, made in the US, and thoughtfully tested with your family’s well-being in mind.
