Circularity
The lifecycle of our products
Our Circularity Department focuses on the durability and circularity of the materials by ensuring that our products have a long life through responsible practices and resource recovery.
- We recover exhibition furniture, as well as samples, last remaining units or discontinued products. We recondition them in our workshops manually, maintaining their original quality, and make them available at our Outlet stores.
- We carefully select materials, finishes, structures and systems in each product, ensuring their durability over time.
- We use certified, renewable, recycled and recyclable materials at all stages: from the design to the production and distribution of our products.
- We offer spare parts and maintenance products to help extend the useful life of components.

Our working practices
Guided by ecodesign strategies, our product designers follow principles that address environmental issues, such as choosing sustainable materials, product lifecycle and minimising our ecological impact. This promotes a more conscious and environmentally friendly design. We stay true to our principles:
- Design and manufacturing processes for high-quality products, that are structurally sound so they can support the weight and tension they may be expected to bear.
- A preference for renewable, recycled and biodegradable materials which are also easy to maintain, in order to extend the useful life of the product.
- Application of a modular design: the ability to separate components and easy to dismantle.
- The use of uniform, homogeneous materials and limited use of composite materials.
- Minimalist designs with clean, simple lines allow us to reduce the amount of materials used, which in turn helps to reduce the weight of our products.

Our philosophy defends the importance of the materials in every piece we create. We deeply value the choice of natural, recycled and recyclable materials, forming a fundamental part of our identity and our commitment to a design that respects the environment and lasts over time.
Wood: The natural warmth and versatility of wood add unique charm and character to our designs.
Stone: The solid nature and timelessness of stone offer a lasting elegance, bringing stability and a distinctive touch to our products.
Metal: The strength and suppleness of metal bring sophistication and modernity to our pieces, which at the same time allows us to create bold and durable designs.
Fabric: We work with materials such as 100% recycled polyester to combine responsibility, comfort, softness and warmth.
Natural fibres: The lightness and the connection with nature of our fibres give them as sense of freshness along with a relaxed style, contributing to create a cosy atmosphere.
Glass: The transparency and luminosity of glass give our designs delicacy, enriching them with a modern and clean aesthetic.
