Morgan Lovell's Podcast Looks At 'Green' Office Furniture At ...

Morgan Lovell?s Podcast Looks At ?Green? Office Furniture At Orangebox

Bright ideas from contemporary workplace seating manufacturer Orangebox on protecting the planet – and ways to avoid furniture being discarded to landfill – are featured in the latest episode of the Green Office podcast, from office design experts Morgan Lovell.

 

The episode centres on a tour of Orangebox?s Mid Glamorgan manufacturing centre based in Wales, and reports on how the company has a holistic approach to sustainability.

 

In the report, Ewan Tozer, the company?s commercial director, explains how the Welsh company has a common sense and cost-effective approach to sustainability.

 

Initiatives include fitting their chairs with replaceable covers – which are the thing most likely to wear out quickly ? therefore extending the life of the seating.

 

Material offcuts are sent to the Midlands to make emergency blankets and all glues are solvent-free and water-based.

 

Orangebox – which has secured a wealth of ‘green? accolades including the Wales Environment Award and the Green Dragon Environmental Standard – also takes back its old chairs from companies when they order new replacements – and has a carefully managed transport policy to maximise environmental efficiencies.

Ewan said: ?Most environmental initiatives make good business sense as they reduce waste and can save money.?

 

The podcast is the fourth in the Green Office series, being produced bi-monthly by office fit out specialists Morgan Lovell.

 

Listeners can hear about the latest trends, technology and people in the world of green office design.
