As a manufacturer of furniture, we believe that our
greatest positive impact is done by creating furniture in
a quality and design that can last for generations, and
thereby eliminate the need for frequent replacements.
For several years we have worked systematically with
making responsible changes. Consideration for the envi-
ronment affects which models we put into production as
well as our choice of materials, how they are processed,
and how the furniture is packaged and transported.
A continuous process
We produce all our furniture in Indonesia. We do this
because 80% of the world’s rattan resources grow in the
Indonesian rainforest, and we therefore have the closest
possible access to the best raw materials. In our production,
we are very focused on avoiding waste. We do this because
it is common sense, but also because it is an unavoidable
part of Indonesian culture.
Our furniture is shipped directly from Indonesia to large
export markets. This way we avoid that our furniture ends
up on a double journey to and from Denmark. By shipping
direct, we are able to reduce transport time as well as our
carbon footprint.
Since 2013, we have been certified by ISO14001. Through
this certification, we have committed ourselves to a
responsible environmental policy as well as an ongoing
focus on exploring new possible ways to develop and
improve our business.
