Picture This is proud  to present  The Sorrento Collection by  Larson-Juhl. The Sorrento Collection is a PEFC certified collection which stands for Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification, which traces the chain of custody of lumber product from forest to final product. Through PEFC, consumers can be confident that they are purchasing a product that is from a well-managed, sustainable forest.

 “Part of Larson-Juhl's mission statement has always been to improve the world we live in, and I'm proud to say Larson-Juhl has a long history of being environmentally responsible,” says Larson-Juhl President and CEO, Steve McKenzie. “We now, however, realize that being green is only part of the story. In addition to the environment, when we think of our world's resources, people and financial resources are also extremely important.”

Larson-Juhl has been awarded chain-of-custody environmental certifications for moulding and matboard products from two worldwide organizations, Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) and Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). The Biltmore™ Frame Collection and Sorrento by Larson-Juhl® is PEFC certified and The Artique Biltmore™ Collection of Solid Color Core matboards is FSC certified.

Third party independent auditors oversee harvesting through manufacturing, distribution, and sales to ensure that a product is certified as claimed and validate a chain-of-custody certification. Products that achieve certification can feature the logo and unique certification number designated to the company to prove validation.

Since 1991, support from Larson-Juhl has funded the planting of over a quarter million trees in Global ReLeaf ecosystem restoration projects around the world. The 2007 donation raises the total number of trees planted on behalf of Larson-Juhl to 300,500.
