Audo Copenhagen lighting without drivers or electronics can be used with a dali converter and dimmer. these components are standard in dali and authorised electricians will select the best combination of components for a specific dali system. based on test results, we suggest one driver/ converter set per lamp to avoid a significant drop in voltage when connected in groups.
Audo Copenhagen lighting with drivers or dimmers that can be connected directly to dali, without the need for conver ters/drivers.
Audo Copenhagen lighting with drivers or dimmers that cannot communicate with dali. to use with dali they must be heavily modified or custom produced (sor when possible).
Audo Copenhagen digital addressable lighting interface (dali) is a dedicated open protocol for digital lighting control that enables the easy installation of robust, scalable and flexible lighting networks. audo’s lighting collection is divided into three categories:
Audo Copenhagen this policy applies globally to the management, employees, and contract workers of all entities in audo, including sub-contractors. the policy also applies to visitors and to situations where audos employees are working at external locations. this policy commitment will be reflected in all other policies, guidelines, and procedures in audo. we encourage our employees and other stakeholders to inform us about challenges on human rights, the environment, or anti-corruption associated with our services, products, or business relations.
Audo Copenhagen our commitment is based on the internationally agreed core principles for sustainable development; human rights (including labor rights), environment (including climate), and anti-corruption. the principles are listed by the un global compact and made operational through the un guiding principles on business and human rights (ungps) and the oecd guidelines for multinational enterprises (oecd). we comply with all applicable regulations, wherever we operate. distinctly deriving from this, is our commitment to comply, which means that audo continuously identifies, prevents, or mitigates our risks of adverse impacts in relation to the core principles. we will communicate how we manage such impacts. we will seek to make a difference for sustainability, where it makes most sense for us as an organization, but also as a human being’s part of a larger ecosystem that is bigger than our corporation. this, of course, also affects our sourcing, design, and procurement as all these processes incorporate a lifecycle-based philosophy. this ensures that no products are manufactured with parts we are unfamiliar with – including the chemical aspects of the products i.e. coating, foam, wiring, pigment for paint, and that the products, as a whole, are manageable in terms of sustainable waste- handling and recycling. this combined with our know- how within craftmanship and our love, and passion, for utilitarian design translates into the brand and quality we are known, and loved for, today.
Audo Copenhagen at audo, we provide design solutions that can transform how we use space, connecting the dots between home, work, and hospitality. we are committed to do so in a sustainable and responsible way.
Audo Copenhagen our employees are key partners in helping us respect international principles for sustainable development. we expect all team members at audo to assist us in honoring our commitment in their daily work. we will embed our csr and environmental commitment in the daily work of both our employees and management through training, communication, and ongoing assessments. we always appreciate good ideas for how to prevent, mitigate or improve our impacts on sustainable development. since our employees have a crucial impact on how audo acts in relation to our collaborators and business relations, it is expected that they follow our internal guidelines and procedures on how to practice and operationalize responsible sustainable development.
Audo Copenhagen for audo, as a global company, environmental sustainability is extremely important for our business, both presently and in the future. many of our raw materials and ingredients are sourced directly from nature, and the continued success of our business is causally linked to the health of the environment. we are therefore continuously looking for ways to reduce our impact on the environment and the communities in which we operate. audo understands, and acknowledges, the important role that we play in understanding, protecting, and enhancing the underlying biodiversity. we are therefore constantly striving to optimize our use of natural resources, to view our products and activities from a life cycle perspective, and to develop and use environmentally friendly products, materials and technologies in a way that contributes to long- term sustainable development. the purpose of the environmental policy is to prevent and control potential risks to the environment and tackle the impacts of our activities throughout the value chain, from the sourcing of materials, through packaging, production, distribution, sales and marketing, to recycling and reusability. in short, this concept is a lifecycle philosophy that we instill throughout our entire organization
Audo Copenhagen at audo we strive daily to improve on all areas of our business in terms of sustainable behavior and thinking, including our approach to transportation and distribution of our products. as a consequence of our holistic approach to product design, all our products are packaged in such a way as to use as little material as possible, while being packaged compactly. the compact packaging paired with the right shock-absorbing material ensures that we do not waste any space during transportation. double- packaging is also a thing of the past in all our warehouses and suppliers. the choice of packaging material (cardboard boxes and shock-absorber) is constantly being reviewed as well, both factoring product and environmental longevity; if our products break during transport, they will have to be transported and packaged again – and maybe 2 or 3 times more before reaching the customer again. choosing the right material that serves both our customers and the environment is therefore alfa omega in terms of packaging, as we recognize that the packaging material will not serve with the same longevity as our products will serve our customers. the mode of transportation used will always be the method with the least environmental impact, and we employ several different technical solutions such as clean shipping index (csi) with the intent of aiding us in choosing the proper solution for each of our individual shipments. furthermore, we are always in contact with our external land-based transportation agents to ensure that our products are delivered in an environmentally satisfactory manner.
Audo Copenhagen we do this by instructing all employees on the relevant procedures in their specific area of responsibility. we do this by training all employees in the relevant procedures in our environmental management system iso14001, which defines our focus and commitment in relation to avoid and replace chemical substances which has newly discovered worrying properties even if the substance has not been classified yet, if it is in any way possible. our designers are committed to design products with focus on quality and longevity to assure a positive life cycle perspective, where our products can hopefully be used for generations. logistics are, undoubtedly, a significant part of our environmental impact; we believe that we have a responsibility and the means to prioritize ways of transportation with the lowest possible environmental impact and all employees working with shipping share this belief.
Audo Copenhagen we will expect all our business relationships to meet the globally agreed minimum standard for responsible business conduct as expressed in this policy. business relationships shall implement the ungps/ oecd; i.e. manage risks of causing or contributing to adverse impacts in relation to human rights, the environment, and anticorruption, and address actual impacts, share their results – and ask the same from their relationships. in cases where a severe risk or impact is discovered it is mandatory to be communicated promptly throughout audos organization and the supply- chain. likewise, audo has an increased and sustained focus on the use of chemical substances in our products. therefore, we are working with specialized advisors in the area to avoid toxic chemical substances and carefully evaluate classifications and newly identified suspected risks. we have a commitment to work actively with this area and set the bar higher than merely conforming to the legislation in the area. any questions and reflections by our stakeholders are welcomed as a key element in the continued responsible development of our strategy for responsible business development. furthermore, we have asked all our suppliers to sign chemical declarations with the intention of maximizing transparency, traceability, and product compliance as a whole, as we have worked tirelessly, i.e. through our product-design-phase and choice of materials, to ensure the above-mentioned compliance and environmentally- friendly concept; this is a chain that must not be broken, and this policy has the intention of enforcing this philosophy.
Audo Copenhagen abrasives.
Audo Copenhagen wood changes over the course of its lifespan, adapting to changes in humidity and light. exposure to sunlight can cause changes to colour and structural over time, although mostly during the first couple of months of use. wood breathes according to climate. therefore, furniture should be placed in rooms with a relative air humidity of 40–50% and a temperature of approximately 20°c. due to temperature and humidity sensitivity, we recommend treating wood during the winter months — preferably before and after the season. furthermore, solid wood may become weathered or the fibres may rise slightly. wipe clean daily using a well wrung cloth and clean water. never use detergents, chemical cleaning products or harsh abrasives.
Audo Copenhagen beautiful, easy to clean and durable, wood veneer is a worthy alternative to solid wood, despite mistakenly often considered inferior in quality. wood veneer furniture is made from thin sheets of natural wood that are applied to a base of mdf, plywood or chipboard, giving the surface the appearance of solid wood. the final product is then varnished with polyurethane for a long-lasting, easy-care finish and to prevent spills damaging the surface and underlying design. the production process ensures an even grain pattern where natural variations in the surface of the wood can be aligned for a more uniform look. wood veneer does not age in the same way as solid wood; it is less prone to splintering and warping and provides additional support to the overall furniture piece, making it inherently more durable than solid wood designs. additionally, as only the outer layer of wood veneer furniture is made from solid wood, it uses a limited number of natural resources. to avoid cracks and other damage, wood veneer should not be placed close to direct heat sources or in humid environments. for daily care, wipe with a damp cloth and ensure any excess moisture is removed. do not scrub as this can damage the grain and/or pigment, leaving the surface patchy. we recommend avoiding cleaning agents

Audo Copenhagen strongly coloured items.
Audo Copenhagen a new table should be treated 2-3 times in the first three weeks of use to allow the soap to penetrate the surface and keep it light in colour. subsequently, the table should be treated approximately every 2-3 months if it becomes too dark, dry or dirty. the soap mixture should be applied with a wrung soft sponge or cloth, in the direction of the grains, evenly and without leaving any spots, stains or thick lines. the sponge or cloth should then be rinsed and well wrung before being used to dry the surface. remember to also treat the bottom of the tabletop to prevent warping. it is normal for the fibres of the wood to raise slightly after the first couple of treatments. when the wood is dry, sand gently in the direction of the grains with fine grain sandpaper (180–240) or a sanding-sponge. wipe away any dust.
Audo Copenhagen soap treatment gives wood a somewhat dirt-repellent surface that helps prevent spills and stains from soaking in. however, if moisture is left on the surface over time, it will leave a permanent mark. this is also true of oil- treated wooden surfaces. the surface soap treatment is primarily applied on products where a naturally aged look is desired.

Audo Copenhagen or stone soap to prevent the stain from drying out or absorbing into the stone. dust once or twice weekly with a soft microfibre cloth. wash periodically with a cloth dampened with warm water, adding a small squeeze of ph-neutral dishwashing liquid if necessary. remove any residue with a clean, damp cloth. do not use abrasive cloths, sponges or wire pads which may scratch the surface. we recommend using a specialist natural stone soap to treat difficult stains. never use acidic detergents (such as bathroom cleaners) or detergents containing bleach. thoroughly rinse with clean water to remove all traces of soap. please note, marble sealer must be maintained every 8–12 months depending on the amount of use.
Audo Copenhagen as these may damage and discolour the veneer. mop spills immediately as liquids can damage the structure of the wood as well as leave permanent marks.
Audo Copenhagen concrete is a naturally porous material with surface imperfections that change over time. these irregularities add a unique character to each object. extend the life and beauty of your concrete interior objects by cleaning periodically with mild soap and water, drying afterwards with a soft cloth.
Audo Copenhagen the beauty of marble and stone is that no two pieces are alike. formed over thousands of years, each piece bears the marks of its history, displaying natural imperfections that make each piece unique. a little care and maintenance will reward you with a lifetime of service. to respect the authenticity of the natural stone, marble is treated with a sealer that provides the optimal compromise between a natural finish and functionality. the sealer leaves a satin-smooth surface that is repellent to liquids and dirt. however, liquids such as coffee, tea and juice should never be left to dry on marble as they will damage the surface. never place acidic fruit on a marble surface and avoid using harsh and abrasive chemicals and corrosives. to avoid everyday damage, use trivets, coasters and placemats to protect from hot tableware or anything that may scratch or stain the surface. if an accident occurs, act quickly and blot spills with a paper towel. do not rub as this will spread the liquid. use a ph-neutral detergent
Audo Copenhagen made from several layers of paper compressed under pressure with melamine-based resins, laminate is highly resistant to wear and tear, is dirt and water repellent, and easy to maintain. clean daily using a clean, damp cloth or sponge and mild, ph-neutral detergent. wipe dry. avoid placing laminate in direct sunlight as this will cause fading.
Audo Copenhagen stoneware is a natural material that reacts to temperature changes and exposure to the elements. when cared for properly, ceramics can tolerate low temperatures. when kept outdoors for prolonged periods of time, cracks, flaking, erosion and salt damage can occur. ceramic absorbs moisture, making it prone to cracking when temperatures drop. move indoors during the winter months to protect from the cold or place outdoors in a sheltered spot. ensure proper drainage by adding a layer of pebbles to the base of a planter without drainage holes, trapping excess water away from the roots of a plant. our planters have been developed for indoor use for which extra drainage is not required. should you wish to use outdoors, add a drainage hole at the bottom using an electric drill, or place sheltered from the rain to ensure optimal conditions for both plants and planter.
Audo Copenhagen linoleum is a unique, natural material, renowned for its elegance and durability. the distinctive look and tactile properties of linoleum – a matte surface with a warm, soft handle – ensure that every piece develops its own distinctive look and feel. clean regularly with a damp cloth and mild cleaner such as forbo monel, 5 ml. diluted in 10 litres of water. for lacklustre or worn surfaces, increase the ratio to 10 ml. pr. 10 litres. do not use alkaline or alcohol-based cleaning products as these will damage the surface.
Audo Copenhagen laboratories and applications where thermal, mechanical and chemical conditions are too harsh for standard, household soda lime glass. we use this type of glass for objects that hold very hot liquids.
Audo Copenhagen each time a mirror is moved there is a risk of damage. therefore, keep any movement to a minimum. to clean mirror glass, use a soft clean cloth wrung with warm water. do not allow the edges of mirror to remain wet for extended periods of time. do not use acidic or alkaline cleaners on the mirror, and never use abrasive cleaners or powders or steel wool. for more thorough cleaning, use commercial glass cleaners without ammonia or vinegar.
Audo Copenhagen for daily cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth. for heavy stains, use a soft brush and standard dishwashing detergent and rinse with a solution of vinegar and water. finish by wiping with a dry, lint-free cloth. avoid using chemical and abrasive cleaners as these will damage the surface of the glass.
Audo Copenhagen watercolour glaze – and its subsequent variations in thickness and colouring – often reveals the porcelain’s underlying natural surface as an effect that enhances the natural beauty of the material.
Audo Copenhagen borosilicate glass is engineered speci fically for use in
Audo Copenhagen we use two types of glaze: colour and reactive.
Audo Copenhagen transparent colour glaze provides a beautiful depth of colour. however, it also reveals imperfections in the stoneware that are normally not visible to the naked eye. this is a natural characteristic of the product’s design, bearing the hallmarks of handmade products.
Audo Copenhagen to retain the quality of your piece and ensure longevity, use a non-abrasive cloth or sponge and warm, soapy water to clean. we recommend wiping with a clean, dry cloth afterwards. all audo’s porcelain/ceramic items are dishwasher and microwave safe. avoid placing in extreme hot or cold environments, such as an oven or freezer, as this could cause thermal shock and result in damage to the structure including cracking and/or breakage. in general, do not use any chemical or abrasive cleaners. black marks on tableware – in particular on matte glazed surfaces, which tend to be more porous than high-gloss finishes – are often caused by cutlery. they can often be removed by using either vienna lime, ceramic cleaner, baking soda or a small dose of vinegar. use a scouring pad with moderate strength to remove the stains. rinse well after cleaning. please note that actual scratches cannot be removed using this method. our thermo cups for daily use consist of two parts – an inner and outer wall – ensuring a cool external surface when filled with hot liquids. the cup appears thick and heavy, but in fact the two connected cups are thinner than a normal cup, making the thermo cup more prone to breakage by a hard knock or blow. if a thermo cup is leaking, it may be caused by the defect closure of the small hole in the bottom of the mug. this hole is made for technical reasons and is closed with paste after the final firing in the kiln. if leaking occurs, allow the cup to dry completely before closing the hole with silicone glue.
Audo Copenhagen variegated or mottled glazes do not have a homogeneous solid colour or character (i.e. like a ceramic sink or toilet bowl). they are called reactive glazes because they contain higher percentages of fluxes and additions intended to produce one or more variables. a variety of mechanisms are used to create the variations in colour and texture. these include crystal growth, the addition of speckling agents, phase separation, layering and opacity variations – occurring with variations in viscosity.
Audo Copenhagen audo uses both soda lime glass and borosilicate glass, depending on product type. mirror glass is used on all the mirrors in our product range.
Audo Copenhagen soda lime glass objects are mouth-blown, meaning each is handcrafted with unique characteristics such as small air bubbles, variations in shape and thickness, as well as colour tone.
Audo Copenhagen corrosive and wear-resistant surface. this process is most commonly used on aluminium. powder-coating is a painting process most commonly used on metals such as steel and aluminium. dry powder paint is applied to the surface of an object and then melted/cured under heat of around 200°c – 400°c. powder-coated surfaces are harder and more durable than conventional paint.
Audo Copenhagen the different types of metal surfaces used to make a number of audo’s designs are simple to maintain and resistant to both dirt and liquids. we use plated, anodised, lacquered and stainless steel, as well as powder-coated steel. plating, anodising and powder-coating is clarified below. plating refers to a variety of surface finishes where solid metal is vaporised and deposited onto electrically conductive materials as pure metal or alloy coating. this provides a thin metallic film on the base material. anodising is an electrolytic process used to increase the thickness of the natural oxide layer on metals. by pairing with paint primers, the process creates a durable, anti-
Audo Copenhagen metal is a catch-all term for metallic elements or alloys of these. the most common metals are iron, copper, zinc, aluminium, tin and lead, as well as alloys such as steel, brass and bronze.
Audo Copenhagen we use four types of leather: aniline, semi-aniline, protected and vegetal. we also use nubuck and sheepskin. care guidelines are the same for all four types of leather. for nubuck and sheepskin, see the following page.
Audo Copenhagen use a soft dry cloth to clean. do not use chemical or abrasive cleaners and avoid using water. please note that hard polishing will damage the surface.
Audo Copenhagen brass is a metal alloy made from copper and zinc. variations can occur from one product to another, making each item unique. untreated brass will naturally oxidise from the moment it is exposed to air, often already displaying dark spots before use. this is not a flaw, but rather a natural characteristic of solid brass. audo products crafted in solid brass are offered in different surface finishes: polished brass, brushed brass and bronzed brass.
Audo Copenhagen audo’s upholstered furniture can be covered in a large selection of fabrics and leather. our upholstery fabrics are sourced from some of the industry’s most respected companies, each with an extensive knowledge on how to best care for each textile type. visit the respective company website for further information about how to care for your product. although our upholstered furniture is made to last, each piece will age uniquely over time. furniture constructed using foam will, depending on use, develop various deformations with use. loose and down-filled cushions should be turned and plumped regularly to ensure uniform wear and to retain their shape. textiles are dyed individually, which can cause variations in colour from batch to batch. this also applies to leather tanning.
Audo Copenhagen to clean upholstery fabric, vacuum frequently with a soft brush and low power. do not rub vigorously as this could result in loss of colour and/or surface damage.
Audo Copenhagen some of our brass products are finished with a layer of varnish to protect the surface from oxidisation. to clean lacquered brass, use a soft dry cloth and do not use chemical or abrasive cleaners or water.
Audo Copenhagen durable and easy to clean, wipe with a soft dry cloth to clean. do not use chemical cleaners or harsh abrasives and avoid using water.
Audo Copenhagen to keep polished or brushed brass looking its best, clean with a gentle metal polish and a soft cloth, avoiding water. polishing creams and/or cloths can be bought in most retail stores. to keep bronzed brass looking its best, clean by wiping with a soft, dry cloth. do not use chemical or abrasive cleaners and avoid using water. please note that hard polishing will over time remove the fine hairlines on the surface of brushed and bronzed brass.
