SUSTAINABILITY
Our commitment to the environment commences prior to the production cycle.
Pelko have also replaced all steel frames with aluminium, which is easily recycled.
The above, coupled with the most advanced technical manufacturing ensure all our products meet the highest environmental standards.
As a furniture manufacturer based in Ireland, using our own transport & installation teams, enables us to use no packaging to get product on site in the perfect condition in which it left the factory. Also, our close proximity to the client base allows us to significantly reduce the environmental impact of transport & shipping of products. Pelko plan all delivery routes maximising capacity to reduce its carbon footprint. This promotes fuel efficiency, emission reduction, and sustainability in our delivery process.
Pelko became officially certified by Ecomerit in July 2018. EcoMerit is about empowering a business or organisation to become more sustainable.

Our sustainability practices and initiatives are at the core of everything we do. Here’s how we strive to make a positive impact:
Eco-Friendly Materials: We carefully select materials that minimize environmental impact. Our chairs are crafted from sustainably sourced wood, such as FSC-certified timber, which ensures responsible forest management and supports reforestation efforts. We also utilize recycled materials, such as plastics and metals, to reduce waste and conserve resources.
Energy-Efficient Manufacturing: Our state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities are designed with energy efficiency in mind. We invest in modern technologies and processes that minimize energy consumption, reducing our carbon footprint. By optimizing our production methods, we strive to operate in harmony with the environment.
Waste Reduction and Recycling: We actively work to reduce waste throughout our production process. We implement rigorous recycling programs, ensuring that materials like wood, metal, and plastic are properly sorted and reused whenever possible. By minimizing waste generation, we contribute to a circular economy and strive for a zero-waste future.
Responsible Supply Chain: We believe in ethical sourcing and maintain close partnerships with suppliers who share our commitment to sustainability. Our suppliers adhere to strict environmental and social standards, ensuring fair labour practices, and responsible resource management.
Durability and Longevity: Our chairs are designed and crafted to stand the test of time. We prioritize durability, using high-quality materials and expert craftsmanship to ensure our products can be enjoyed for years to come. By promoting longevity, we reduce the need for frequent replacements and contribute to a more sustainable consumer culture.
