Lower CO2 footprint

Since 1989, all our products have been designed for flat packing, which means minimizing CO2 emissions during transport and storage. We continuously work to reduce the environmental impact of our activities, and you can read more about our specific initiatives on our website. We are not CO2 neutral, but we keep working hard to minimize our CO2 footprint.

Maintain & refresh

Designing for flat packing means creating a set of parts that easily combine into a full product. The complexity and number of parts vary from product to product, but the design strategy allows for easy replacement of components to prolong product lifetime - whether it is to replace a worn-out part or refresh the look of the product.

Disassembly & recycling

In our design process we focus on the ability to disassemble the products and materials after ended life cycles. Which materials are used, how they are combined, and how they can be separated into individual parts and recycled. Each design creates a new challenge and some designs are more suitable for disassembly than others, but the ECO-dimension is always an integral part of our way of thinking.

Durability | 5 years warranty

Quality and durability are at the center of our design and production process. We offer 5 years warranty on all designs and lifetime warranty on slats and gears on all sofa beds in the Multifunctionals category.

See further information about warranty on our website.

Certified production facilities

We engage in the development of local communities to contribute to a better tomorrow in the areas in which we are present. To ensure ongoing improvement, our production facilities are continuously audited to ensure third party confirmation that our group values and working conditions are followed. Amongst others by amfori BSCI Code of Conduct. See more about our standards and principles on our website.

Give back to Nature

To contribute to the balance of the global ecosystem Innovation Living plants more than 10.000 new trees every year to compensate for our consumption of wood.

Fabrics & Covers

The texture and colour of the fabric are important as they will interact with the product design to define the final character of the furniture. As preferences tend to change over time, our fabric collection is constantly adjusted to offer a variety of choices that reflect the spirit of the time.

Detachable covers

As it offers obvious benefits, a growing part of our collection comes with detachable and washable covers. The sofa is easy to maintain as covers can be machine washed at 30 degrees Celsius. Upholstery can be replaced if they are worn out, or if you want to freshen up your sofa. Instead of replacing the entire sofa, this will create a significantly smaller impact on the environment.

Products available with detachable covers: Accordion, Achillas, Conlix, Idun, Merga, Multifunctionals, Narvi, Pascala, Puri, Revivus, Rollo, Trym & Yonata.

Detachable covers

Fabrics

As not all designs are suitable for removable covers, the durability of the fabric and ease of cleaning becomes crucial for the longevity of each design. All fabrics are highly durable and upgraded by adding backsides to strengthen them even further. All fabrics can withstand wash at 30 degrees Celsius, which means that products can withstand wet cleaning. Finally, most of our fabrics are OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified which means they are free of harmful chemicals and substances.

Recycled fabrics

The supply of fabrics made from recycled fibers is fortunately constantly increasing. In our collection we are now able to offer two fine qualities made from recycled plastic bottles.

Eco specials | Revivus & Puri

Eco specials is a collection of uncompromising designs that take environmental aspects in relation to material selection, production, packaging, transport, durability and recycling into account. It is product developments like this that give us insights and learnings that will qualify us as an environmentally friendly manufacturer. Please see pages 80 and 82.

The construction of Revivus:

Fabric made from recycled bottles Vivus is the name of our OEKO-TEX certified fabric made from recycled bottles. The slipcover is simple to detach and reattach, making it easy to clean. If worn out, just renew the cover - not the entire sofa. OEKO-TEX recycled fiberfill The cushion fillings are made from OEKO-TEX recycled fiberfill.

Durable metal frame Using metal for the frame provides a strong and highly durable base protected by a layer of recycled powder coating. Recycled, granulated foam The mattress filling is made from a combination of a soft topping of OEKO-TEX® certified high resilientfoam and a core of recycled bonded foam. Bonded foam is made of leftover foam from our own and other productions, which we remould, compress and use again.
