Repos Shelving

“A piece of furniture is truly successful when it invites you to use it without any explanation.” At We do Wood, they create eco-designed wooden furniture using certified raw materials. Ethics and aesthetics go hand in hand in the work of this brand, which offers meticulous and original designs while ensuring that the production process is as environmentally friendly as possible, from the selection of raw materials to the final packaging. Their products are made from moso bamboo, considered one of the most sustainable natural resources in the world. We do Wood only works with certified plantations, meaning their bamboo is grown without any chemicals, pesticides, herbicides, or fertilizers. But their commitment to the environment goes much further. No harmful chemicals are used during their manufacturing processes, and all adhesives used exceed the strict European E1 standard for indoor air quality. In order to reduce emissions from the manufacturing process, the bamboo is shipped directly from the plantation to the furniture manufacturing facilities, avoiding unnecessary transport routes. Finally, the product is flat-packed, which helps minimize the use of packaging material and reduces shipping volume. Bamboo, the quintessential sustainable raw material, is the only woody plant whose regeneration rate is in balance with the rate of human consumption. This is possible thanks to the speed at which it reaches maturity (it takes approximately four years). It also reproduces very quickly naturally, continuously generating new shoots without the need for chemicals, pesticides, herbicides, or fertilizers. But there are other reasons that make bamboo a great choice as a sustainable raw material. This plant plays a crucial role in the balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. A bamboo grove naturally absorbs two-thirds more carbon dioxide and releases one-third more oxygen than its equivalent volume of trees. In addition, bamboo plantations improve soil quality by preventing erosion and prevent water pollution thanks to their high nitrogen uptake. In short, the company We do Wood has done everything possible to reduce the carbon footprint of its products, assuming this fact as a responsibility, taking into account aspects that affect the entire production process (raw materials) and consumption of its products (logistics and recyclability).
