These alternative pawns use 40% or more wood fiber which is visible on the surface of the pieces and give a different look from traditional plastic. Also, a muted color pallet reflects a more natural world than plastics. Wood fiber is taken from waste wood so plant resources are not cultivated for these products. Using so much wood also reduces the need for resin resources by at least 40% or more. The wood-plastic pellets effect varying facets in the injection molding of these products, including the melting of raw materials and faster cycle times. Turning these pellets into finished products can take up to 35% less energy to manufacture. Green! Green! Green!
