We feel a major responsibility for the environment and to secure a sustainable future. A functioning ecosystem is essential for social welfare and economic development. We are the first generation that can eradicate poverty, and the last that can fight climate change.
That’s why we want to become part of world in balance and create conditions and opportunities for sustainable development and circularity.
Our journey in the circular transition has begun, we are developing products with eco-respect, responsible supply chains and circular life. This means respecting ecological limits, natural resources and climate change. Supporting responsible suppliers and investing in sustainable competition on equal terms, where prices are not cut at the expense of people nor the environment. As well as giving products circular life and creating space for circular flows, from the idea to reuse for a sustainable future.

We need to act together and now to secure a sustainable future. That’s why it’s important that everyone does their bit. We are committed to sustainability and are keen to work with customers who share our vision – together we can really make a difference!
Here are some reasons to choose us:
From 1 January 2024, requirements for sorting and separate collection of bio-waste from households and businesses apply. The requirements are linked to the introduction of the waste directive (2008/98/EC) Article 22 on bio-waste and means that EU member states must ensure that bio-waste is either separated and material recycled at source, or collected separately and not mixed with other types of waste.
What do the new EU requirements for sorting bio-waste really mean and how does it affect your office?
An approved product gives us and our customers security and reassurance that the product meets the requirements for the environment, quality and social responsibility. Our entire CombiLine range with white lacquered surfaces and direct laminates in beech, birch and oak are approved by Möbelfakta. Space with white lacquered surfaces and Place are also approved according to Möbelfakta.

Environment
Production is adapted to the environment at all stages, from raw materials and components to the finished product. The environmental criteria include mandatory material and product requirements. They cover all materials such as wood, metal, finishes, plastics and adhesives. There are also requirements for a range of chemicals that should be minimised or avoided altogether. The requirements also cover the labelling and traceability of the finished product, maintenance and product information, spare parts, recycling and packaging.
Quality
For secure and safe furniture with a long technical life. An approved piece of furniture that has met the quality criteria is objectively tested and verified by testings in a laboratory. Our products are covered by three international technical standards that include safety, function, dimensions and surface durability.
SS-EN 14073-2:2004 Safety requirements
SS-EN 16121:2013 + A1:2018 Requirements for strength, durability and safety
SS-EN 12720:2009 + A1:2013 Surface resistance
Responsible supply chains
Conscious producers who work systematically with the supply chain based on social and ethical requirements. For good conditions during production of the furniture and its components. The requirements that are based on the UN Global Compact are developed in line with international principles on working conditions, human rights, labour issues, the environment and corruption. The furniture manufacturer must be able to provide comprehensive documentation that the Möbelfakta criteria for responsible business practices are met.
We have the UN’s Global Goals as a starting point, this way we can work actively with the Global Goals and contribute to sustainable development. We have selected five goals that reflect our activities and where we have the best opportunity to make an impact, these goals will be the starting point for our future work over the next 10 years.
