Each piece of wood stores CO2 absorbed by the tree through photosynthesis. Our goal is to keep that carbon sequestered for as long as possible.
Carefully selected materials
Responsible purchasing – FSC® certification
It is crucial that we preserve forests because they play a vital role in absorbing carbon from the atmosphere and providing habitats for biodiversity, and many communities around the world depend on their resources. The FSC® certification ensures that the solid wood we use for our products comes from responsibly managed forests. It guarantees that the forests are managed in a way that protects biodiversity and that is socially and economically beneficial to local communities. The silvicultural practices used are designed to preserve the diversity of flora and fauna and enable forests to be conserved for the long term.
In 2023, 55% of our solid-wood products were FSC®-certified.
Repairability - Built to Last
Unlike synthetic materials or composites, solid wood is strong and durable. It stands the test of time, withstanding daily wear and tear without losing its beauty. When your furniture can be repaired, it lasts longer — reducing the need for new pieces, which require additional energy and natural resources to produce. By choosing to repair rather than replace helps conserve resources, reducing energy consumption, and minimize waste.
Materials we no longer use
In order to offer you solid, repairable products that stand the test of time, we have chosen to use solid wood. There are also a number of materials we now refuse to use in our products. For example, we no longer use MDF (Medium-Density Fiberboard), as it is much harder to repair than solid wood.
