CERTIFIED WOOD RAW MATERIAL
The year in brief
PROPORTION OF FOSSIL-FREE ENERGY
EMISSIONS OF CARBON DIOXIDE PER TRADED SEK
CO-LOADING ALL OUR BRANDS
Kinnarps’ logistics concept is unique in the industry
and uses circulated packaging material in the form of
blankets instead of single-use packaging. This saves
270kg of packaging material per container and also
provides 50% more furniture space, thanks to denser
packing. This year, the system has been expanded
to include deliveries of NC’s products directly
to the client. This has reduced both the number
of shipments and carbon dioxide emissions.
BIO-BASED SURFACE TREATMENT
This year at our factory in Kinnarp we’ve
tested and introduced bio-based lacquer
on selected wooden details in our range.
The lacquer is partly based on renewable
raw materials from plants instead of fossil
raw materials and means a reduction
in carbon dioxide emissions of approx.
1.5 tonnes per year.
We’re leaving a successful year behind us and can look back on twelve months
filled with exciting client projects with a focus on sustainability. During the year,
we have tested new materials and innovations aimed at increased sustainability,
and made major investments for the climate and more circular flows.
MATERIA RE-LOVED
During the year, we’ve added yet another tool to our toolbox to
extend the lifespan of our high-quality products. With Materia
Re-Loved, we offer to take back a selection of products from
Materia for reupholstering. These reupholstered products are given
a green label to indicate that their lifespan has been extended.

CUSHION MADE OF LEFTOVER FABRIC
This year, we’ve developed another product
made from leftover fabric from our own
operations. The Re-Fold cushion from
Materia is made from leftover fabric from
our Tranås factory. The fabrics used depend
on the leftover fabrics available at any
given time. The padding is also recycled
and consists of siliconised ball fibre.
LEXIE – SUSTAINABLE ALL THE WAY
Lexie is a comfortable and functional new
wooden chair that’s both Möbelfakta and
FSC® certified. Thanks to a design featuring
minimal components, all of which can easily
be separated and recycled, it is a circular,
long-term sustainable choice.

RARE – WITH RESPECT
FOR NATURAL MATERIAL
Rare armchair from NC, in FSC®- certified birch,
has been designed with a desire to make use
of the whole tree and show respect for the
wood. Parts of the tree that are usually hidden
behind textiles or incinerated have been used
to truly make the most of the material. Each
chair is unique – a small shift in colour or a twig
is a lovely testament to our love for nature.
