Sustainability Breakdown
One of the world's largest wood consumers; despite using FSC wood, it has faced credible allegations of sourcing wood from old-growth forests.
Designing products for disassembly and circularity, while piloting furniture leasing/buy-back schemes; however, mass furniture consumption is still high.
Strong carbon footprint reduction plan, heavily investing in renewable energy and aiming to reduce value chain greenhouse gas emissions.
Strict chemical restriction lists and phase-outs for hazardous finishes, but still uses considerable amounts of synthetic adhesives and lacquers.
Enforces a comprehensive supplier code of conduct (IWAY) with regular auditing, though complex supply chains present occasional compliance leaks.
