From linear to circular economy

Did you know that 90% of the unused furniture in Europe is burned or ends up on the waste mountain? Not only is this a waste of existing furniture, but new products are also produced unnecessarily. By redeploying materials and products, we cut CO2 emissions by up to 40 percent per year. So why not make the producer responsible for the entire furniture life cycle?

Benefits

Sharing platform

With Furniture as a Service we create a sharing platform on which we exchange furniture based on supply and demand between organisations. Look at it as if it was marketplace for furniture, on which you can return used products as a customer. We refurbish your old furniture and re-use with another customer. So we prevent waste products and materials and contribute to achieving CO2 objectives.
