Sustainability Goals
& Certifications
The process
Our commitments towards environmental sustainability
make up a large part of our corporate values. Designs that
endure through time cannot only rely on timeless looks,
but must be built out of materials that last. Therefore, the
furniture, lighting and accessories we offer are constantly
being assessed for improvements in their manufacturing,
processing and deliverance, so that we can minimize our
overall environmental impact for the benefit of ourselves
and our clients.
Currently, a range of our products are certified by
reliable certifications such as: FSC®, Oeko-Tex®, and
Responsible Down Standard (RDS), whilst efforts are
being made to improve in other areas. Our immediate goals
for 2021 include:
– Certify our first products according to EU eco-label
– Switching to water lacquer on a range of our products
– Develop and implement a restricted substance list;
– Transition to using recycled plastic in our furniture
assortment;
– Prioritize the use of renewable materials for packaging
A list of our certified products is available here.

has been given to its ergonomic design, with each of its curves
developed to provide optimal back support.

boasts a wide range of options. Its shell is available in an impressive
range of contemporary colours, while made-to-order upholstery for

Hee Welling has sourced
post-industrial plastic waste
that can act as blank canvas.
The plastic waste is being
cut into pieces and turned
into granulate.
They are mixed with colour
and readied for injection
moulding.
And then the frame is
mounted.
