Specialising in using ethically sourced material, Rotpunkt is a luxury kitchen brand with a firm eye on sustainable manufacturing.
All their production has been 100% carbon-neutral since January 2020 and its greenline BioBoard uses resource-saving chipboard, which saved up to 50 football pitches of forestland per year.

3. Cosentino
While stylish, granite and marble are inherently unsustainable for the environment as they both require an energy-intensive manufacturing process.
Silestone quartz is a great alternative and Cosentino is leading the pack when it comes to creating stunning tabletops.
Cosentinos Sunlit is a hybrid formulation made with premium minerals, quartz, and recycled materials—reduces waste by using 99% reused water from the production processes, 100% renewable electric energy, and a minimum of 20% recycled raw materials in its composition.

5. The Little Botanical
Go green – literally – by bringing plants into your home. Not only do they boost your mood, a little greenery can also help to absorb toxins such as benzene and formaldehyde.
British brand The Little Botanical takes the hassle of plant picking by providing a curated collection of contemporary succulents and houseplants in stylish pots, with most of their plants grown on-site.

6. Nemo
Given that we spend a third of our lives asleep, it makes sense to invest in a quality mattress. New to the market but already causing a stir, Nemo claims to be the world’s first fully recyclable mattress, with every king mattress made from at least 300 plastic bottles.
Best of all, it can be recycled faster than you can say the word nap – the whole mattress breaks down within just five minutes.
