Making a Difference Together
As a sustainable creator of vitalising work environments, we truly make an impact—together with our clients. Our mission is to enhance the well-being and performance of our employees, while being at the forefront of the circular economy.
As pioneers of a circular business model, we’ve been putting the circular economy into practice for years through our furniture and services. This allows us to reduce the environmental footprint of our own operations and those of our clients.
Clients can trust us to support their sustainability goals by providing furniture that helps reduce CO2 emissions by office environments. We also ensure that our materials and furniture are developed with respect for both people and the planet.
Our sustainability strategy
Our sustainability strategy is based on four pillars:
A sustainable office furnishing will allow organisations to greatly impact their sustainability and governance targets. All our furniture is modular and is sustainably produced, designed to last multiple lifecycles.
Circular Design
Our furniture is modular, lightweight, designed according to Ecodesign principles and easy to disassemble.
