Our commitment to sustainability

Our commitment to sustainability

Sebel's journey to a healthier future for generations to come.

From responsible product design to materials selection and waste reduction, we’re committed to improving our sustainability footprint through new thinking linked to meaningful targets. We’re taking considered, practical steps every day to make a serious, long-term impact.

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.

To date, we have successfully reduced CO2 emissions by 46% 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:

In our latest initiative, the RePlay Programme, offers schools and organisations the option to participate in a service where we collect their old Sebel chairs, grind them into plastic chips, and mould them into new chairs, fully embracing the circular economy.
