Sustainable furniture

FOR LIFE! IN ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY, HEALTHY AND RESPONSIBLE MATERIALS

MAKE nordic's sustainable design principles were created because we want to be a responsible company where we take good care of each other and our common land.
We create long-lasting quality furniture, as we want to do away with the "Buy-and-throw-away" culture and leave the smallest possible footprint.
Over 90% of our wooden furniture is made from wood from FSC®-certified forests (FSC® N002763), and our textiles are labeled with Oeko-tex, the EU Flower or are made from recycled materials.

MAKE nordic is a newer player on the Nordic furniture market. Our starting point is quite simply uncompromising love for architect-designed furniture and sustainable design that can last a lifetime. In the intersection between Nordic design and Danish quality, MAKE nordic will take the stage and show the results of the work that furniture architects create with pencil strokes on their sketches.

We have taken great pains before the furniture is fully developed. From the architects' sketches and the carpenter's details to your living room. From fabric markets to your sofa. Everything is born in the space where creativity, craftsmanship and attention to detail meet, and here the furniture that we at MAKE nordic offer our customers is created – in the digital universe.

MAKE nordic and our distribution channels are where we find our customers, namely online. We sell our furniture and collections online. This ensures that our architect-designed furniture of the highest quality can beautify Danish homes at a price where the expensive intermediate parts are cut out.

FSC®-Certified wood

At MAKE nordic, wood is the supporting element in our furniture constructions, and with that naturally comes a responsibility to choose wood from responsible forestry. FSC (Forest Stewardship Council®) is a global labeling scheme for wood, paper and other cellulose-based materials that aims to protect nature, as well as the people who work in and depend on it. With FSC, for example, you are ensured that no more wood is felled than the forest can reproduce, at the same time that the forest workers have access to training, safety equipment and decent wages. FSC is also the only global labeling scheme that has broad support from green organizations such as WWF, Greenpeace and Verdens Skove.

Environmentally friendly textiles and cold foam

The cold foam inside our furniture has a leading health label. The same applies to the fabric and textiles we cover the furniture with. The labels set stricter requirements for the content of substances harmful to health than the legislation does - and we would like to take the extra precautions for your health. For example, this means that our furniture foam (cold foam) and textiles are free of brominated flame retardants, which are suspected of being highly endocrine-disrupting, and for this labeling it also applies that the closer the product comes to the body, the more stringent the requirements are for the chemicals used . The requirements for the content also follow developments in medical research, so that the labeling is always in step with the latest knowledge. Ask for the markings on cold foam and textiles when choosing your furniture. We are happy to help you get the cleanest and most sustainable products. You are always welcome to contact us for good advice and guidance.

EU blomsten – Furniture

EU-Blomsten is the official European eco-label. The whole is essential in relation to the EU Flower, and the certification is a holistic perspective on the product's overall environmental impact and therefore deals with all relevant phases in the product's life cycle, from raw materials and production to disposal and recycling. Products that are certified with the EU-Blomsten therefore have a limited environmental impact. The EU-Blomsten also sets high requirements for the chemical content of the products - both for the health of consumers and for the environment. In order for a product to be marked with the EU-Blomsten, the product must go through a comprehensive certification process at Ecolabelling Denmark - with documentation and control of, that it meets the stipulated requirements. When you choose a product marked with the EU Flower, you can therefore – regardless of which product you choose – be sure that it is among the environmentally best in its category. You thus protect the environment and drive production and product development in a more sustainable direction. about a cradle-to-cradle consideration and about the environmental impact of the products. It is essential for MAKE nordic. We endeavor to the extent possible that our products can be labeled with the EU Flower. We constantly collaborate with our suppliers in the area of sustainability, and have an ambition that our FSC®-certified wooden furniture can be labeled with the EU Flower in the near future.
