Our environmental operations are certified in accordance with the international environmental ISO 14001:2015 standard.
We comply with relevant environmental legislation, and our goal is to reduce the environmental load resulting from our operations continually.
In the year 2013 we invested in a boiler plant that uses 100% renewable energy (pellets) replacing the use of fuel oil.
In our metal plating operations, we adhere to the strictest standards in the industry. The process itself is closed and the used water is treated in our process water treatment plant. More than 80% of the water is recycled for reuse.
All of our own manufacturing takes place at our Salo factories and many of our supplier partners are located nearby. Short transport journeys during manufacturing have a significant positive impact on the carbon footprint of our operations.
We use the eco-chrome plating process (Chrome 3Cr+ Trivalent), which is more environmentally friendly than the method previously used, mainly because no chromic acid is used in the process.
In the year 2009, we switched to using a phosphate-free pre-treatment process in powder coating. Thanks to significant investment, our powder coating process is now even more environmentally friendly than before. The new process is based on nanoceramics, and it improves the quality of powder coating.
All our products have a timeless design and an excellent quality for long product life. Moreover, all of our products are designed ready to be repaired. Instead of buying a new product you can always change the upholstery of an old chair, paint the wood part or metal frame once again.
After a piece of furniture reaches the end of its life cycle, it can be easily disassembled for recycling.
For how we take into account all people – our own personnel, our customers and our partners – is of great importance.
As an employer, responsibility for people means, above all, ensuring a safe work environment and good management and supervisory work for us.
Our operations are certified according to the occupational health and safety system (ISO 45001:2018). Read more »
Although we are constantly investing in the machinery of our production, only committed and professional people will enable the development of our company. The machines alone do nothing.
Our employees actively participate in the development of the safety of their own work environment.
It is an honor for us to employ in Finland and to be a good employer. Our company values provide a framework for leadership at all levels of the organization. In our day-to-day work, everyone, regardless of their role, has both the opportunity and the obligation to make their own contribution to making our operations responsible.
ISO 45001 specifies requirements for an occupational health and safety (OH&S) management system, and gives guidance for its use, to enable organizations to provide safe and healthy workplaces by preventing work-related injury and ill health, as well as by proactively improving its OH&S performance.
The standard helps us to achieve the intended outcomes of our OH&S management, including continual improvement of OH&S performance, fulfilment of legal requirements and other requirements and achievement of OH&S objectives.
Furniture design and manufacturing is part of our company’s core.
With this expertise, we maintain and repair furniture, auditoriums and other venues.
We are also modernizing different facilities to meet needs of modern multi-purpose use.
Our operations are not limited only to our own furniture collections.
