The Wood Furniture Scorecard is an initiative of the National Wildlife Federation (NWF) and Sustainable Furnishings Council (SFC). Its goal is to encourage furniture retailers, big or small, to implement robust policies that drive responsible wood sourcing practices through their complex supply chains. This year, for the seventh installment of the Scorecard, we assessed 119 companies and are presenting their scores below.

The Methodology used for scoring is updated every year, to keep companies moving forward. Typically, the first step is adopting a wood sourcing policy, and next steps are to implement the policy. The 2024 methodology places greater emphasis on setting and implementing responsible sourcing targets, with more points available for companies that prioritize setting and publicizing targets.

We encourage companies to set, strive toward, and report on public goals because this increases internal alignment and motivation, creates external accountability, and gives a company leverage and talking points with vendors. Most of our high-achieving companies, therefore, have set targets and are demonstrating how they are working towards meeting them. The decrease in some companies’ scores this year (compared to the previous year’s scores) may be a result of the changes to the methodology.

We encourage everyone to visit High and Top Scorers’ websites and/or their most recently published Sustainability Reports to see how companies are improving their wood sourcing, setting targets, and reporting progress.

Top Scorers | High Scorers | Most Improved | All Scores | Methodology

Awarded to companies that earn at least 10 points more than they have earned in previous years, though less than the threshold for High Score.
