Packaging and shipping density
Flat-pack design cuts container cost significantly on tall towers. Ask for a carton dimension sheet and units-per-container before you compare landed cost.

What material is best for cat tree boards?
MDF and particleboard are standard; higher-density board resists screw pull-out and warping better. Solid wood is used for premium posts and shelves.
Is sisal or carpet better for scratching posts?
Sisal rope is more durable and premium; carpet is softer and cheaper. Many successful models combine both.
Can cat trees be shipped flat-pack?
Yes — flat-pack greatly reduces container cost and is the norm for tall towers. Assembly instructions are customised for your market.
Do your cat trees meet US and EU wood regulations?
Yes — CARB/TSCA Phase 2 for the US and FSC / REACH-aligned materials for EU markets, with documentation provided.
