ISO 14001 is an international standard recognised globally, that defines how an effective environmental management system should be developed.
The LCA methodology applied to Catifa 53, Catifa 46 and Babar has enabled us to evaluate their environmental impact throughout their lifecycle by carrying out an in-depth analysis of each stage of the process. This encompasses the raw materials, extraction and treatment ofthe materials used, transportation, assembly of the chairs, packaging, distribution, use andend of life.
Some versions of Catifa 53, Catifa 46 and Babar collections have been the first products to achieve the Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) under the Norwegian NHO system.
All Ginger tables and some versions of Team chairs have obtained the International EPD® System under the Swedish Environmental Management Council.
Our Approach
We have an abiding interest in harmony: harmony between people and objects, and harmony between objects and their environment. These convictions hold true for both aesthetic and environmental impact. We do not, and will not, ignore our responsibility. At the same time, we must acknowledge the paradox between industrial production and its environmental impact. It is a complex condition. When it comes to sustainability, how do you separate fashionable posturing from earnest solution? A complex condition requires a complex, thoughtful response and re-evaluation.
