From our selection of the finest raw materials to the individual design and handcrafting of each product, Tesco Learning Environments is committed to making our furniture last a lifetime. While many companies have switched to lower-priced, lower-quality materials, Tesco has not wavered from our commitment to quality. We use more solid hardwoods than any other educational manufacturer. Despite the trend toward international outsourcing, Tesco continues our commitment to employing hand-selected hardwood from the northern regions of the United States and from supplies that assure responsible forestry management policies.
