Our Solution: Designing for Sustainability
1
Innovative Design
Our innovative designs provide the perfect pairing of sustainability and style, supporting our commitment to these goals and a sustainable future.
2
Design for Circularity
This allows a product to live on, post-use, through reusing, remanufacturing, refurbishment, or recycling, lessening the strain on our resources.
3
Design for Disassembly
Products are designed so that they can be rapidly disassembled at the end of their life, allowing for various components to be reused or recycled.
4
Use Home-Compostable Materials
Take sustainability into your own hands. Home-compostable products reduce the need for council pick-ups and allow you to ensure your waste is taken care of responsibly.
By switching to a more sustainable packaging alternative, you’re helping to reduce the 21 million tonnes of waste ending up in landfills each year!
