Elfa's sustainability efforts in practise
These are some of steps on our sustainability journey we have taken:
- Reducing carbon footprint: The backbone of the click-in system is re-designed to reduce its carbon footprint. The amount of steel is reduced, without compromising on quality or load capacity.
- UN global compact signatory: The UN Global Compact was signed in 2018, its principles are implemented, and Elfa is actively driving awareness and action in support of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).
- Less plastic in packaging: By separating drawers and gliding frames, we reduce our total use of plastic with 2 %.
- Code of conduct: To ensure business is conducted ethically and fairly, all employees get training in our code of conduct, at least once per year.
- Life cycle analysis: In 2020, we started conducting lifecycle analysis and calculating Elfa’s carbon footprint.
