It is what it is. You can't please everyone. Proceed anyway.
When I embarked on this journey, I said to myself:
"Just be honest. Ensure your products are safe for people and nature and that the core materials and parts can be recycled."
Here's how I turned that thought into a design principle:
Be Honest:
- I'm not enthused by measuring the 'carbon footprints' and GHGs and tackling climate change. 😱
- I'm motivated to create long-lasting products that can be reused repeatedly in their original form and do not create unnecessary waste.
Safe:
- The glues and finishes are applied in highly controlled, specialist environments. In liquid form, there are some flammability, contamination, and health risks. Arbore are pros!
- Once applied to furniture and cured, no harmful residues are emitted, and no persistent, bioaccumulative, or toxic (PBT) substances exist. ✅
Recyclable:
- Parts can be recycled and used as components for a similar product or as raw materials for something completely new. â™»
