SOLLEN, ALL IN TRANSPARENCY WITH ECO IMPACT

For SOLLEN, sustainbale furniture is furniture that is well thought out, well produced and designed to withstand everyday life. Our furniture are design and timeless, made in France (Nouvelle Aquitaine) with materials carefully selected:

• Wood from sustainably managed forests certified PEFC for a reasonable and sustainable management of the forest.

• Fabric “boucle wool” 100% recycled fabric, labeled GRS, Global Recycled Standard.

But to go further, we made a strong choice: let Eco Impact, an external and independant organization, note the environmental and social impacts of our products.

Why eco-rate SOLLEN’s furniture ?

This assessment is part of our responsability policy:

• Transparency: to enable you to make informed choices.
• Continuous improvement: to enable us to identify our priority areas for improvement.
• Fighting greenwashing: to validate our actions and our values and thus leave no room for misleading communication.

The rating of our products by Eco Impact, how does it work ?

The Eco Impact rating is based on a Life Cycle Analysis (complete study of all parts of the furniture, from the extraction of the raw materials that compose it to their end of life, including manufacturing, transport, ect.) but by integrating demanding qualitative criteria in addition such as the social conditions of manufacture. We let you discover how it works in less than a minute:
