BHC was born from a deep appreciation of the outdoors and a desire to put down roots in the places we seek adventure. Loving the outdoors puts you in close contact with the natural world, and helps to define your priorities and practices. Our entire team is consciously committed to crafting sustainably-designed products designed to last lifetimes and leave a light footprint in the woods and wild places we call home.
As stewards of the planet we thoughtfully consider each element of our brand and product to ensure a light footprint. Our core considerations:
We seek products that can be RECYCLED at the end of their life. Our target is a shell System that is 100% recyclable.
We work with LOCALLY-SOURCED products, makers, and manufacturing partners.
We select products that are SUSTAINABLY PRODUCED.
We have adopted a ZERO WASTE philosophy in our production and construction practices.
We utilize ENERGY EFFICIENT materials that consider the health of people and the planet.
In keeping with our light footprint philosophy, we recently launched the BHC tree-planting initiative, an ongoing commitment is designed to make a meaningful contribution to the health of our forests. Through this initiative, BHC is supporting Forest Recovery Canada (FRC) in their planting of 150 trees for every System 01 and 02 cabin that is purchased. FRC plants trees today for a greener and healthier tomorrow, contributing to the healthy future of our forests by increasing forest cover and adding connectivity between forested areas.
