Navigating the Jungle of Sustainability Certifications in the World of Design
When you stroll through the local supermarket on a gray Thursday afternoon, consciously choosing items for your shopping basket, you likely rely on familiar labels such as the Swan Label, Asthma/Allergy Label, and the well-known Organic label.
However, when it comes to design, furniture, and other products, what certifications can and should you keep an eye on, and why do design companies choose one specific certification over another?
In this episode of Design Kan, we explore sustainability and certifications within the world of design. We delve into the motivations behind the selection of particular certifications and highlight the considerations that should be taken into account. What does it actually entail to work with sustainability, and how do companies navigate through the jungle of available certifications?
Today's guests are Kaja Wiegand Møller, CEO of Fredericia Furniture, Njusja de Gier, SVP Marketing & Digital at Kvadrat, and Joakim Lassen, CEO of Montana Furniture. We are also joined by sustainability expert Cilla Harpsøe Bråten from True Nordic Impact, who contributes her knowledge in sustainability based on the guests' experiences.
