The Space of Change

Sustainable Furniture for the Office

It would be great if… our working spaces could be beautiful, sustainable, creative and flexible

 

But the current workplace is in

20% of all landfill comes from office furniture

540kgrequired for every desk madeRaw material

The work place is evolving fast

Existing furniture manufacturers cannot respond quickly to this need…

A brand new company is required because…

adaptive, values led, lightweight, fleet of foot, life-supporting, life-enhancing. They will be more fun, more inspiring.

in the future companies will be different, they will be more

Whether you are a company of 50,000 or five, how we work has changed – inflexible, non-adaptive, uncreative, uninspiring working environments are no-longer required.

Our purpose is simple

Our advanced paper engineering enables us to furnish enlightened businesses with beautifully crafted sustainable products, personal to each customer, with a no-quibble guarantee, rapid delivery, and end-of-use buy-back.

We are inspired by natureNature uses only the energy it needsNature fits form to functionNature recycles everything

So we make our products only from what nature gives us: 100% renewable fibres

To make important changes we need to

think differently about our world, what we use and what we throw

away. We need to think differently

about how our every day needs are met – what materials are appropriate, what processes will be

sustainable, and at what cost.

Our driving concerns What we take, what we make, and what we waste

We use only sustainable and recyclable materials that are environmentally

friendly.

Renewable fibres made from wood pulp and

bamboo are the means by which we can create

and re-create the future.Again, and again, and

again.

We don’t use MDF, environmentally

damaging chemicals, only good stuff that can be returned to the earth

as a nutrient or safely recycled.

We are inspired by brilliant design and high spec engineering that follows nature’s enduring simplicity, strength and form and we don’t do ugly either !

Think of today’s standard office furniture as the milk bottle before the arrival of TetraPak, or Encyclopedia Britannia before the arrival of Wikipedia, or the Cheque book before the arrival of the debit card

Or let’s be honest, standard office furniture before the arrival of Flute PRO

don’t let your office design dictate the way you work. Be the business you are meant to be.

Workstations for one or for many

Beautiful, strong, adaptive, sustainable, low cost, 100% recyclable

Our workstations are very strong, as well as being supremely well engineered. This takes time.

1700kgMax load bearing

Our workstations are as light as a feather, offering great manoeuvrability, as well as being something to marvel at.

Build time is three minutes.

(Tested to British and European commercial safety standards – BS EN 527-2 for strength and stability and BS5852:2006 for flame retardancy)

We believe in celebrating the extraordinary colours that make life vibrant and fun. So we have an exhaustive colour range and a blank canvas for creative design
