Sustainability in the company I UP.GREAT by LINDEMANN

Sustainability

We view the new world of work not only as agile and task-oriented, but also as a path to a more sustainable society. Therefore, as a service provider we not only ensure that processes and structures are regularly checked and optimised in our company, we also help to make the offices of the future more sustainable in our customer advisory services and consulting workshops.

Our Values

Employees & Colleagues

We attach great importance to our employees’ individuality. Our flexible working hours and home office arrangements create space for personal development and a work-life balance. Our Café zur Linde offers space for social exchange and confidential discussions, because open and honest communication plays an important role for us. Regular team events strengthen the “we feeling” and the appreciation of one another and togetherness are very important to us. We see equality as a matter of course.

Companie

We have installed a water filtering system for our employees which cleans the water, thus ensuring there is clean drinking water. Regular fruit and vegetable deliveries support a balanced diet. The workplaces are equipped with ergonomic swivel chairs and height-adjustable desks. Waste separation options in the kitchen are also aimed at supporting an ecological recycling economy. These are just a few examples of how we implement sustainability in our company.

Partners & Products

We feel an obligation towards the environment both in our cooperation with trading partners and in the manufacture of our products Made in Germany. Sustainability therefore also plays an important role when choosing our partners and suppliers. Not only the production of our own LINDEMANN furniture should be as environmentally friendly as possible; many of our partners’ products are also produced sustainably. This avoids unnecessary packaging and wasted resources.

Our Partners

Baux Muuto Taiga Haworth Framery

Baux

Sustainability has been an integral part of the BAUX business model since the company was founded in 2013. They not only actively strive for climate neutrality within the company but also try to inspire other colleagues and friends in the design sector to do so as well. When choosing materials, attention is paid to environmentally friendly, recyclable and organically-based materials. Local production and manufacturing in Sweden are aimed at reducing transport emissions, as are factories in the US and Australia. In addition, low-waste production methods are used and emphasis is placed on renewable energy. All materials are 100% natural and without additives, the pine and spruce used is also FSC-certified .

VOCs are emissions that can have adverse health effects. Muuto therefore tests its products for these emissions in order to create a healthier indoor climate. Both the headquarters and the offices and warehouses are powered by 100% renewable energies. When designing new products, consideration is also given to the effects on health, the surroundings and the environment. In addition to the life cycle of materials, great importance is attached to durability and origin. Muuto is an FSC certified company, as they protect the forests and natural environments from which their materials come.

Muuto

Muuto is a Scandinavian design label with headquarters in Copenhagen. From the materials to their partners to packaging, Muuto always tries to think about the decisions that are made and how their priorities affect the well-being of people and the environment. Shipping packaging and the shopping bags in their stores are made from at least 65-90% recycled material. When choosing product materials, great attention is paid to recyclability and water-based adhesives are used.

Taiga Concept

Taiga Concept products are designed to provide privacy to users. Wooden and glass partitions serve to reduce sound and suppress it within the product. The modular and ecological workplace solutions are inspired by the calm feeling of the Nordic forest and are intended to bring the positive aspects of nature to every work station. The environmentally friendly cabins are locally produced and made from recycled or recyclable materials. In addition, they have been awarded the M1 certificate, which stands for low emissions.

Improving materials and ensuring recyclability are important aspects of our partner’s sustainability policy. The search is ongoing for new ways to support the circular business model. The use of resources is optimised and waste is to be avoided. Sustainable values are very important in the company and material that cannot be reused is recycled. Products have also been awarded various environmental labels, such as the SCS Indoor Advantage Gold or PEFC certificate.

Haworth

Our partner Haworth has set itself the goal of making the world a better place. They help customers avoid disposing of materials in landfills and repurpose used furniture. Haworth employees also work together to develop economic and social systems. Haworth also wants to promote a culture in which everyone is involved and can develop their individual skills. Research is constantly being carried out to make products more sustainable.

Framery

For our partner Framery, satisfaction is an important concern. This also means future satisfaction. When manufacturing the telephone booths, care is taken to ensure that the materials used are mainly recycled or recyclable. Both the acoustic foam and the felt inside the booth are 60-70% recycled. Framery products are mostly made from birch plywood that comes from Finland or its neighbouring countries. All suppliers are FSC or PEFC certified.
