Skagerak has a sustainable ambition deeply rooted in the Scandinavian heritage. Their concepts for renting and reselling pre-loved furniture from their brand keeps the furniture in circulation and lives up to their promise to create quality designs that last a lifetime
The sustainable path
Skagerak believes it is time to stop linear thinking and start putting things into circulation. To design items that can be repaired, reused, decomposed, and regenerated. Therefore, the company has launched two new sustainable concepts that make it easier for customers to make the right decisions: Reclassic and RENT.
Reclassic is an online platform with pre-loved Skagerak indoor and outdoor wooden furniture that Skagerak wants to give a new chapter in an ongoing story. They want their furniture to stand the test of time – patinated with age. And if the owners’ need change, it can be passed on to someone else. With Reclassic, the company buys back Skagerak designs, which they then carefully restore and resell online.
RENT is Skagerak’s rental service that makes it easy to furnish your outdoor space while at the same time acting responsibly. With these two initiatives, the company honours valuable materials, keeps them in circulation and lives up to their promise to create furniture that lasts a lifetime.
