FURNITURE AND CLIMATE THEORY
FACT are industry leaders in helping our clients on their journey towards decarbonisation. Members of The Sustainable Design Collective, we are a founding contributor to the ‘think tank’ group committed to acting as a collective within the workplace design community. Our mission is to identify developments and ‘best practice’ relating to sustainability. We are committed to using our position to force change at industry and government level.
Founder, Dominick Pegram, sits within the voluntary management committee of Business Declares!. We believe that business has a major part to play in tackling the climate, ecological and social emergency.
Using our industry leading expertise we have created a network of used furniture suppliers, skilled up-cyclers and refurbishment specialists. FACT partner with Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprises hungry for your unwanted chairs and tables.
Combined with our experience and passion for supplying furniture to some of the most prestigious projects in the UK, we take our customers on a journey from audit of existing furniture, concept and budget planning to installation, completion and rehoming of unwanted assets.
FACT is committed to understanding and improving our environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance, to be responsible and proactive in advancing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
FACT support their clients in reaching the UK Net Zero Carbon Buildings Standard. We minimise embodied carbon by offering products, manufacturing processes and materials that have lower carbon emissions. Specifying furniture that is durable and has a long lifespan. Provide furniture designed for circularity, easy disassembly and recycling at the end of its life. Provide furniture that aligns with the UKNZCBS requirements, which include third-party verification to ensure that the claims of net zero carbon alignment are accurate and based on measured data.
FACT put our ideas into practice. Individuals doing great things - together.
WE DECLARE A CLIMATE EMERGENCY
FACT is proud to be joining Business Declares and the fast-growing network of businesses who acknowledge the Climate and Ecological Emergency. Our aim is to be net zero by 2030 by reducing our emissions and impact on biodiversity. Concern for both people and the planet are not new to us and we look forward to continuing to share our journey and ensuring our voice is part of the collective, resounding call for change. We are certainly not claiming to be perfect, neither are we judging others, instead we are part of a coalition of the willing, looking to collaborate and accelerate action while continuing to highlight the challenges and uncomfortable truths
