We develop new products according to the latest insights into sustainability and the principles of the circular economy. It all starts on the drawing board, with a good and well thought out design.
We develop every new product according to the latest insights into sustainability. That already starts at the drawing board; with a good and well thought-out circular design according to the Gispen Circular Design Criteria:
We ensure minimal material loss in all our designs. We aim for minimal CO2 emissions during production and during and after use of the furniture. And we assume minimal depletion of resources.
That is why we use reusable, recyclable, biodegradable, safe, sustainable, renewable and recycled materials as much as possible.
We design products so that they have a maximum usage and lifespan and that they can be repaired and reused to a maximum.
Our designs are high-quality, timeless and modular. This makes maintenance, repair and revitalization easy. The parts are reusable and multifunctional.
A circular economy revolves around partnerships and chain integration, much more than any linear production economy would. How can you make sure that your materials end up in the right place when they have reached the end of their lifecycle? And how do you ensure that your own waste and that of others is being recycled? Gispen makes good agreements with its partners and suppliers to guarantee this. We can only do so by taking control of the entire production chain. After all, as a supplier and manufacturer we have considerable influence. We take our social responsibility seriously when it comes to procurement. It is from procurement that we establish control over the supply chain. We stimulate and create demand for sustainably produced or circularly produced products. This is one of many ways in which we strive to achieve our CSR objectives.
We use sustainable materials
We (re)use existing furniture
We refurbish both Gispen products and products from other manufacturers. When this process is finished, these products are given a REVIVED label.
