We only use aspen wood to make our excelsior as it is environmentally friendly: Aspen trees reforest themselves. All the trees from an aspen grove are identical.  The root system of an aspen grove, dating back to the ice age, is considered the world's largest living organism. When a tree is cut, the root system responds by growing several trees to take its place. Excelsior is a natural alternative to shredded paper and plastic which requires the use of chemicals to manufacture. Our aspen excelsior contains no chemicals and is biodegradable.   About Us | Products | Contact Us © 1999 Excellent Excelsior Co. this website created by Noble Image
