Building a sustainable future through better design choices

Inspiration

01 Jun 2021

A commercial building may undergo 30-40 refurbishments during its lifetime – all producing waste.

To safeguard the environment for future generations, we all have a responsibility to make design choices that are more sustainable.

At Frovi, we have taken a more considered approach to the materials we use in our products, so that you can be assured that you are making more sustainable choices for your workplace design.

By choosing sustainable materials, you can help reduce the use of harmful chemicals, reduce waste and minimise pollution.

Furniture made from Bamboo

Our Bamboo furniture range is crafted using eco-friendly materials including recycled plastic bottles, recycled nylon and pressed bamboo.

By maximising efficiency through production, Bamboo uses less energy and produces less waste during the manufacturing process.

Along with Picket Screen, Colony Felt Panel and Trapeze Light, the Bamboo felt screens are pressed into a rigid, three-dimensional form without the use of any glues or resins.

Sustainable Forestry

Our Grow Stools are made from 100% cork, are 100% recyclable and utilise a type of bark that is removed every 9-12 years without causing harm to the tree.

Ideal for any setting, both are lightweight, easy to move and can be transformed effortlessly into a bench or side bench.

In addition, Frovi wood frame products are available with a chain of custody certification upon request. Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC® – C134751) is a global, not-for-profit organisation dedicated to the promotion of responsible forest management worldwide.

100% recyclable steel

The industrial look is at an all-time-high, so stripped-back, weathered wood and steel accents are on trend.

Choosing to be eco-friendly doesn’t require a compromise on style if this is your chosen design; all Frovi steel frames are made predominantly from recycled material, are 100% recyclable themselves and the powder coatings we use are issued with an environmental product declaration.
