PARTNERSHIP WITH SUSTAINABLE ORGANISATIONS

The company could partner with organizations that share its sustainability values, such as environmental non-profits or green certification programs. This would help to further promote its commitment to sustainability and social responsibility.

SUSTAINABILITY FOCUS

The company would place a strong emphasis on sustainability, highlighting the environmental benefits of repurposing office furniture. The business would be committed to reducing waste and preventing furniture from ending up in landfills.

QUALITY ASSURANCE

The company would thoroughly inspect and refurbish all furniture items before offering them for sale. This would ensure that customers receive high-quality, functional furniture that meets their needs.

AFFORDABLE PRICING

The company would offer competitive pricing for its repurposed furniture, making it a cost-effective alternative to new furniture. This would be particularly appealing to customers who are looking to save money on their office furniture purchases.

CUSTOMISATION SOLUTIONS

The company could offer customization services to tailor furniture to the specific needs of individual customers. For example, the company could offer custom reupholstery or refinishing services to give furniture a new look.

ONLINE PLATFORM

The company could leverage an online platform to reach customers & streamline the buying process. This would allow customers to easily browse available items, purchase furniture online, and arrange for delivery or pickup.

ACHIEVEMENTS

JOS Movement Is Proud To Announce It Has Diverted Over 500Kg Of Office Furniture From Landfills Since 2020!

A LITTLE BIT OF FORETHOUGHT CAN END A LOT OF WASTE.

We are in an industry that operates at an enormous scale, and therefore, we must have a plan in place for the furniture that we are purchasing, at the time of purchase (or soon thereafter). Specification and reuse of second-life contract furniture is the most powerful way to reduce carbon emissions in the contract office furniture industry. Not all furniture inventories are eligible for resale on the JOS Movement Marketplace, yet we are still interested in helping you find the right solution for donation or recycling responsibly.

Carbon Reduction

As professionals in the world of furniture design, thanks to the circular economy, we can reuse and recycle different materials as many times as we want, thus avoiding the generation of unnecessary polluting waste and at the same time promoting values of social and environmental responsibility.

Recycle Used Furniture

When we buy a piece of furniture that is committed from start to finish to promoting the circular economy, we are recovering the value of its materials and raw materials, while at the same time reusing and giving a second life to secondary materials, such as plastic bottles, for example

Create Opportunities

By purchasing upcycle office furniture from JOS Movement, we are promoting the circular economy. However, it may happen that a chair breaks down or breaks. Instead of replacing the product with a new one, at JOSMovement we are committed to a proper repair to prolong the life of our furniture, while taking care of the environment.
