SUSTAINABLE DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING
DS2 Scotland understand the importance of a product life-cycle approach when designing furniture.
DS2 take pride in designing furniture that is built to endure the test of time. Sustainability and quality are at the forefront of our processes, from design to delivery, while staying attuned to the ever-evolving trends in commercial furniture. We carefully consider the environmental impact of our products from cradle-to-grave, evaluating each step of the process to reduce our CO2 emissions and minimise our impact on the planet.
If needed, furniture and screen components are manufactured in the United Kingdom and can be replaced over time, or additional items can be produced to expand your seating or desking areas. This ensures continuity and adaptability as your organisation's needs grow and evolve.
RESPONSIBLE MANUFACTURING
At DS2 we understand that every space is unique and often has bespoke requirements. Whatever your requirement, DS2 Scotland is here to help you find a solution that works.
We pride ourselves on the quality of workmanship by our joiners, upholsterers, and stitching team. We ensure that we are never wasteful of materials, ensuring any waste is recycled through our relevant partners. We can advise on the most eco-friendly textiles on the market, including fabrics manufactured from recycled materials.
We ensure that all timber used in our furniture comes from responsibly managed, FSC-certified forests. Our foam is fire tested to BS5852, and our DCM-free adhesives are free from dichloromethane, a chlorine-based solvent. Certification is available on request.
DELIVERING LOWER EMISSIONS
By using our own vehicles and delivery personnel, we ensure that deliveries are efficiently routed to minimise fuel consumption and emissions.
In addition, we take responsibility for all unused packaging by collecting and recycling it on the return journey.
Our commitment to the environment extends beyond today's processes. We believe in progressively implementing more eco-friendly changes in our business operations as we can contribute to the health and longevity of our planet for generations to come.
RESTORE & REVIVE
Reupholstering can offer a multitude of benefits, from meeting sustainability targets and reducing your carbon footprint, to increasing product life and saving money. But it's not just about practicality - it's also an opportunity to reinvent the style of your item.
At DS2 Scotland, we strive to be at the forefront of both sustainability and beautiful design. Climate change is a pressing issue, and it's up to us as businesses and individuals to address damaging, disposable behaviors. By restoring furniture, we can decrease our carbon footprint and create a better world for future generations.
