With Earth Day just around the corner, why not celebrate some of the MANY sustainable companies in the design industry. More and more companies are switching gears and becoming sustainable, which makes our world a better place! Take a look at some of our favorite sustainable manufacturers:
Icon Modern
A new kind of custom furniture and architectural elements company. For more than a decade in custom fabrication, Icon Modern makes custom products more accessible to designers by offering more versatile, sustainable materials and capabilities than most custom shops. Icon Modern’s materials are all sourced locally and handcrafted in Chicago, IL.
Fireclay has been reinventing, redefining, and radicalizing the industry. The company has committed to using sustainable manufacturing practices and using recycled materials. “For us, making tile is about more than just playing with color. It’s about the earth. We dig our hands into the dirt and feel a connection to the past, to our history, and to our need for shelter.”
A purpose-driven journey to sustainability since 1994. Interface is proud to deliver their Mission Zero® commitment, in part by becoming the first global flooring manufacturer to sell all products as carbon neutral across their full life cycle.
Designed for the outdoors, MAMAGREEN furniture is manufactured using a majority recycled or recyclable materials. More than 90% of the teak is carefully sourced from abandoned buildings, with the remainder coming from strictly managed plantations.
Skagerak is a family-owned company established in 1976 in Denmark. They believe in sustainable and straightforward beauty and work with skilled international designers that help us achieve that goal. Skagerak’s primary focus was producing quality furniture, designed to last for generations.
Skargaarden makes their furniture that lasts over time and materials that can be outdoors all year. Teak wood, stainless steel, galvanized steel and aluminum are all materials that have been proven to work for outdoor use.. so they use it!
Experience absolute design flexibility and freedom with an eco friendly indoor and outdoor collection of vent-free, electric, bioethanol and gas. You choose your three fuel types which allows you to configure your fire table for indoor or outdoor use.
"To make the world a better place, one tile at a time." Artistic Tile will always pursue refinements and improvements to our environmental stance. Artistic Tile is proud that the products they sell have extremely long life cycles, which reduces their overall environmental impact.
