The Space of Change
Sustainable Furniture for
the Office

2. It would be great if… our working spaces could be
beautiful, sustainable, creative and flexible

3. But the current workplace is in

4. 20% of all landfill comes from office furniture

5. 540kg
Raw material
required for every desk made

6. The work place is evolving fast

7. Existing furniture manufacturers
cannot respond quickly to this
need…

8. A brand new company is required because…

9. in the future companies will be
different, they will be more
adaptive, values led, lightweight, fleet of foot, life-supporting,
life-enhancing. They will be more fun, more inspiring.

10. Whether you are a company of 50,000 or five, how we work
has changed – inflexible, non-adaptive, uncreative,
uninspiring working environments are no-longer required.

11. Our purpose is simple
Our advanced paper engineering enables us to furnish enlightened
businesses with beautifully crafted sustainable products, personal
to each customer, with a no-quibble guarantee, rapid delivery, and
end-of-use buy-back.

12. We are inspired by nature
Nature uses only the energy it needs
Nature fits form to function
Nature recycles everything
So we make our products
only from what nature gives us:
100% renewable fibres

13. think
change
To make important
changes we need to
think differently
about our world,
what we use and
what we throw
away. We need to
think differently
about how our every
day needs are met –
what materials are
appropriate, what
processes will be
sustainable, and at
what cost.

14. We use only sustainable
and recyclable materials
that are environmentally
friendly.
Renewable fibres made
from wood pulp and
bamboo are the means
by which we can create
and re-create the future.
Again, and again, and
again.
We don’t use MDF,
environmentally
damaging chemicals,
only good stuff that can
be returned to the earth
as a nutrient or safely
recycled.
Our driving concerns
What we take, what we make, and what we waste

15. We are inspired by brilliant design and high spec engineering
that follows nature’s enduring simplicity, strength and form
and we don’t do ugly either !

16. Think of today’s
standard office
furniture as the
milk bottle
before the
arrival of
TetraPak, or
Encyclopedia
Britannia before
the arrival of
Wikipedia, or
the Cheque
book before the
arrival of the
debit card

17. Or let’s be honest, standard office furniture before the arrival of Flute PRO

18. don’t let your office design
dictate the way you work.
Be the business you are
meant to be.
Workstations for one or for many

19. Beautiful, strong, adaptive, sustainable, low cost, 100% recyclable

20. Our workstations are very strong, as well as being
supremely well engineered. This takes time.
Max load bearing

21. Our workstations are as light as a feather,
offering great manoeuvrability,
as well as being something to marvel at.
Build time is three minutes.
(Tested to British and European
commercial safety standards
– BS EN 527-2 for strength
and stability and BS5852:2006
for flame retardancy)

22. We believe in celebrating the extraordinary colours that
make life vibrant and fun. So we have an exhaustive
colour range and a blank canvas for creative design

23. cradle to cradle
Our business model is built on sustainable enterprise: every fibre re-used

Do only one thing
well at a time! We have planned
our future work
products and
platform, but we
will release our
products when they
meet our exacting
design and
engineering
standards.
