Pillars of Sustainability

The term ‘sustainability’ is widely used - but are we truly acknowledging what it stands for? At LOFT, we push further to achieve authentic sustainability and do everything we can not just for the property furnishing sector, but our planet.

The principles of sustainability refer to the three core concepts of environmental, social, and economic sustainability. We allow these principles to guide our decisions throughout the whole business - from procurement to delivery and everything in-between, we are constantly pushing sustainability measures.

Environmental

Environmental sustainability is the responsibility to conserve natural resources and protect global ecosystems to support health and wellbeing, now and in the future. Our strict ethics surrounding our supply chain and procurement ensures our furniture reflects this.

Social

Social sustainability is about identifying and managing business impacts, both positive and negative, on people. Our People First ethos drives our various community initiatives to ensure we always give back more than we take.

Economic

Economic sustainability is a vital part of sustainability and means that we must use, safeguard and sustain resources to create long-term sustainable values by optimal use, recovery and recycling. We proudly hold a 98% landfill diversion rate due to our recycling, upcycling and donation infrastructure.

LOFT's Sustainability Initiatives

Environmental Sustainability

We protect trees for every piece of furniture we sell.

Together we aren't just thinking about sustainability, we’re taking affirmative measures. Real people making a real difference.

We plant trees and clean up beaches

LOFT have planted 5000+ trees to date and all trees have been hand-planted by LOFT employees. It is greatly beneficial for LOFT employees to personally plant these trees as it gives a hands-on perspective of the company's commitment to sustainability and also gives a sense of collective accomplishment.

Every tree planted is another step closer to our ultimate goal of Net Zero, the ultimate achievement of mirroring our ambitious sustainability goals and company vision.

Social Sustainability

Planet Approved Products

Part of our commitment to social sustainability comes in the form of furniture donations to many wonderful charities nationwide. Everyone should have the opportunity to call a place home and have a sanctuary to feel safe and comforted in.

We donate a large range of LOFT furniture to furnish the homes , the majority of the furniture supplied is either returned orders or ex-display. In some companies, this category of furniture would be counted as “unusable” – but not at LOFT. We saw the opportunity to not only help people in need and help create home environments but also keep the landfills that bit emptier by upcycling our furniture to give it a second life.

Factory visits

LOFT has a dedicated QC team based in China, which visits the factories which produce our furniture to ensure they're meeting the stringent ESG principles we set.

Driving Sustainability

Getting items to you happens with as little waste as possible too. The digital POD system we use to deliver our orders reduces the need for unnecessary paper delivery notes, and everything we do complies with the requirements of our accredited ISO 14001:2015 status.
