Three Pillars to Reducing CO₂

As part of our commitment to sustainability, we are continuously exploring ways to enhance our processes and achieve our target of reducing CO2 emissions by 50% by 2027, compared to our base year of 2020. Our approach to sustainable practices is built on three main pillars: Responsible Manufacturing, Designed to Last, and Considered Materials. These pillars play a significant role in our journey and help guide our future plans.

How we got there

To date, we have successfully reduced CO2 emissions by 55% through various initiatives, including:

  • Installing solar panels at our Minto factory
  • Switching to LED lighting
  • Partnering with recycling companies
  • Converting our fleet to electric vehicles
  • Recycling and repurposing furniture components
  • Producing items using recycled materials
  • Manufacturing products using recycled materials

We’ve also designed and manufactured a range of recycled products and product components and will continue to incorporate more recycled materials in future products. Some of our products that are made from recycled materials include: 

RePlay Recycling program

In 2025 we launched RePlay. RePlay is our furniture recycling program. We collect your end-of-life Sebel chairs, chip them down, and mould them into brand new recycled chairs – keeping plastic out of landfill and closing the loop. Help us divert plastic from landfill by joining RePlay today.
