ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY STATEMENT

Commercial Furniture Solutions likes the world and is dedicated to minimising our impact upon it. The Butterfly Effect suggests that a small change in a system, such as the fluttering of a butterfly’s wing can trigger connections that lead to resonant change. As such, we include environmental consideration in the development of our products, the materials we use, our industrial processes and every aspect of our manufacturing, sales and delivery chain.

Small steps and actions over time become a history of responsible achievement, and a record of the process of change. Our growing concern for minimising our footprint on the environment is also shared by our diverse customer base. Implementing and adhering to environmental and sustainable standards is our responsibility as a manufacturer and our service to the planet.

CFS recognises its responsibility to design and manufacture products, conduct operations, and provide services in a manner that is responsible to the Earth’s environment, protective of its natural resources and protective of its employees’ health and safety.

CFS has realised that the greatness of its solutions is equal to the sum of its parts. As a result, careful consideration is given to each material and process during the research and development of each product line.
