More circularity, less waste

Did you know that 90% of unused furniture in Europe is either incinerated or sent to landfill?* A massive waste of valuable materials – and it means new products are being manufactured unnecessarily. By reusing existing furniture and materials, we can cut CO₂ emissions by up to 40% annually.

Furniture as a Service (FaaS) gives companies a flexible, sustainable way to furnish workplaces without ownership. Instead of upfront investment, you pay for use and can scale furniture needs anytime. Returned items are refurbished and reused, ensuring high-quality furniture while reducing CO₂ and waste.

Always up-to-date workspaces  

Your business can grow, your staff can change, activities can develop and big projects can begin. This influences your occupancy rate and how the office is used. Are you ready for these changes? Furniture as a Service allows you to return or add products monthly. This allows you to optimise the occupancy rate of your office and keeps your employees satisfied with always up-to-date workplaces.

Full service maintenance 

We visit our clients every two years to check your products functionally and aesthetics. In the meantime, what if something breaks? You can easily register a service request via the QR code on the product sticker. We will then be able to repair this free of charge, because the warranty applies during the full term of your contract. 

Financial flexibility

Furniture as a Service is a subscription in the form of an operational lease. Which means Ahrend remains the owner of the furniture and you only pay for the period you use the product. So you keep your working capital available for your core activity and never pay too much because you only pay what you are using.

The future of furniture in practice

Wageningen University and Research (WUR) aims to halve the use of raw materials by 2030 compared to 2014 , among other things by using products more intelligently. The strategic accommodation plan revolves around setting up working environments on campus as flexibly as possible. FAAS helps them to implement this flexibility in practice.
