At IKEA, we always look for ways to make more from less. We aim to use only renewable and recycled resources by 2030, to make sure that we create value rather than waste. When you bring the products home, we want to help you make them live as long as possible, and we offer you hundreds of solutions for a more sustainable life, from saving water and energy at hoe to sorting waste or reducing the footprint.
Natural beauty
Here at IKEA, we’re working hard to secure that all our wood comes from more sustainable sources and not from high conservation value forests or illegal logging. BJÖRKSNÄS bed frame is only one of the many products made of wood, a natural material that lends warmth, is recyclable and most importantly - renewable.

Waste to resource
The LINDKNUD rug is made of polyester from recycled PET bottles. But you won't feel it even if you stand on it barefoot. The dense, thick pile provides a soft surface to walk on, and it dampens sound.

Sustainable and purifying
We give the existing materials new life to consume less raw materials and lower our environmental impact. This is why GUNRID curtains are made from polyester from recycled PET bottles. Yet there is even more reasons to love these curtains. Their fabric is treated with a mineral-based coating that reacts to natural light and breaks down indoor air pollutants.

Why wood?
We’re big fans of wood. It’s a living material that ages beautifully and is both renewable and recyclable. All items in VILTO series are made of solid birch. They are hardwearing and will last for years to come, growing more graceful with age.

Three times better
The ALSEDA stool is called sustainable for a couple of reasons. First, it is made from banana fibre that is a fast growing and renewable material. Second, it serves for three functions in one and helps you consume less. Hang it on the wall as decoration, invite your guests to have a seat or use it as a coffee table.

Tomorrow can be brighter
Bamboo parts with slightly darker colour tones are often discarded in manufacturing. With the KNIXHULT lamp series, we instead let these parts enhance the expression. If you want to make the lamp even more sustainable, add a LED bulb. All the light bulbs that we sell are LED. They use 85% less energy and last 20 times longer than incandescent ones.

Waste sorting, sorted!
Waste sorting is a simple action and the first step towards giving waste a new life. Different types of waste require different sizes of bins, so it is convenient to have a bigger bin for plastics, some smaller ones for used batteries, etc. The flexible HÅLLBAR series that can be integrated in a drawer under your sink takes waste sorting and makes it simple.

Did you know?
Household makes up about 8% of overall fresh water consumption.
Thanks to aerators, all IKEA taps save water, without you noticing any difference in water pressure. And with the GRANSKÄR, DALLSKÄR, DANNSKÄR and ENSEN mixer taps, you can reduce the hot water you use by up to 30%. The secret is – hot water is delivered only when you need it instead of every time you lift the lever. If you lift the lever straight up, it delivers cold water. Lift it to the left and it delivers hot water.

Can plastic be sustainable?
Yes, it can. Especially if it is renewable. The bioplastic used for HEROISK and TALRIKA tableware series is made from corn, which makes it more sustainable option than the one from sources like fossil oil.
