Glaner, en bref, c'est ramasser ce qui reste dans les champs ou les arbres fruitiers une fois que le producteur a fait sa récolte. Il reste en effet toujours des légumes et des fruits qui n'ont pas été ramassés ou cueillis. Ils sont trop petits ou déformés, quelque peu abîmés ou trop mûrs pour être vendus, tout en étant parfaitement comestibles. 2, record 2, French, - glaner

Our environmental doors are a creative and important alternative to standard door construction. This unique product line uses wood materials that lumber mills typically discard by burning. Our doors are made from a reformed product, known as medium density MDF, to create door panels that accept our beautiful design work. Executive Door is proud to be part of the solution in eliminating the burning of wood waste. Environmental door panels do not require the harvesting of even one additional tree. 3, record 4, English, - environmental%20door
