This collaboration aims to establish new industry benchmarks for sustainable furniture, enhancing the circular economy by promoting products designed for durability, recyclability, and reduced environmental impact.
By working together, RESEAT and the Cradle-to-Cradle Products Institute will foster standards and practices that prioritize the full lifecycle of commercial furniture, from design to disposal. The partnership will support RESEAT’s goal of reducing waste and carbon emissions associated with office furniture, ensuring that materials can be continually reused, refurbished, or recycled instead of being sent to landfills.

“The Cradle to Cradle Products Institute is excited to launch a partnership with RESEAT,” said Elwyn Grainger Jones, Executive Director of Cradle to Cradle Products Institute. “As we work to transform the built environment from a linear to a circular economy. By collaborating, we are accelerating the transformation of the contract furniture industry by connecting the dots between designing with circularity in mind and end-of-life systems that power the circular economy. This partnership will pave the way for a more sustainable future, where furniture is designed with intention and doesn’t end up as waste. Together, we are demonstrating that a circular approach isn’t just an idea but is possible!”
Together, we’re excited to set new standards for transparency, sustainability, and responsible resource use across the industry.
