Sustainable Furnitures' key principles:

  1. Materials: Sustainable furniture uses resources wisely. This means:
    • Renewable materials: Wood from sustainably managed forests, bamboo, cork, or recycled materials like plastics or metal.
    • Low-chemical finishes: Avoiding harmful substances that pollute during production or off-gas in your home.

 

  1. Manufacturing: Sustainable practices are followed during production to reduce environmental footprint:
    • Local sourcing: Using regionally available materials and keeping production local cuts down on transportation emissions.
    • Energy efficiency: Manufacturers that use renewable energy sources or minimize energy consumption.

  1. Durability and Design: Built to last!
    • Well-made construction: Furniture designed for long life reduces the need to replace it frequently.
    • Timeless design: Classic styles that won’t go out of fashion mean less furniture ending up in landfills.

 

  1. End of Life: Considering what happens when you’re done with the furniture:
    • Biodegradable materials: For furniture made from natural materials, these can decompose naturally.
    • Recyclable materials: Designed for easy disassembly and recycling of components.

 

By choosing sustainable furniture, you’re supporting responsible businesses and reducing your own environmental impact.
