Environmental responsibility & Sustainability

At Skeie Seating AS, we are committed to running a responsible and sustainable business. Based on UN Sustainable Development Goal 12 – Responsible Consumption and Production – our fixed furniture should not only offer a long service life and low lifecycle costs, but also contribute to a significantly reduced environmental impact over time.

UN Sustainable Development Goal 12.
Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns

Our core principles

Long life span

We design and manufacture furniture that stands the test of time and minimises the need for frequent replacement. This contributes to a more resource-efficient consumption cycle.

Low lifecycle costs

By focussing on durability and quality, we reduce total costs over the product’s lifetime – both financially and environmentally.

Minimised environmental impact

We are committed to optimising the use of resources in production, reducing waste and energy consumption, and promoting the use of environmentally friendly materials and processes.

Our approach

1. Sustainability in design and production

We integrate sustainable principles at every stage – from concept development to finished product. This involves continuous innovation to find solutions that reduce the environmental footprint throughout the product lifecycle.

2. Circular economy

We work to create products that can be repaired, upgraded or recycled to maximise the use of resources and reduce waste.

3. Collaboration and supply chain

We choose partners and suppliers who share our sustainability focus and work to minimise environmental impact throughout the value chain.

4. Continuous improvement

Through regular evaluations and updates of our processes, we ensure that we are constantly moving towards even more sustainable solutions.

Our mission

We want to be a driving force for a more sustainable future in the furniture industry. By delivering products that combine quality, functionality and environmental responsibility, we hope to inspire both our customers and partners to make sustainable choices in their everyday lives.

This policy is a living document and we at Skeie Seating are committed to updating and improving our strategies in line with new opportunities and challenges in sustainable development. We believe that responsible consumption and production is not only a necessity, but also an opportunity to create lasting value for both society and the environment.

Skeie Seating AS is in an ongoing environmental certification process and will be certified as an Eco-Lighthouse company by May 2025.
