Lensvelt is the first furniture label with a circular based business model. All of the world’s current financial business models are cultivated through endless consumption.
Consumption undoubtably leads to the use of energy and raw materials and nothing is more sustainable than no human consumption at all. As we here at Lensvelt are aware of the ‘glitch’ in the system that does not adhere to our philosophy regarding sustainability we have thus made an important investment in what we like to call ‘The Circular Pool’.
We take back all our products
The Circular Pool allows us to retrieve all of our own products. Since 2019 all Lensvelt products have a reference sticker that connects back to the website that allows us to manage and administrate the take back of all our products. We believe that the products that meet the functional, occupational health/safety and quality requirements deserve a second life. Once reused, they offer another user new pleasure, utilizing the concept of a circular economy breaking the take, make, waste cycle. It is important to note that we disassemble and recycle products and product parts that do not meet these requirements as we like to adhere to the highest standard of quality and do not accept giving the user a faulty product.
Refurbishment
We ensure that furniture can always be refurbished and is continuously updated and modernized. We clean the upholstery and change the height adjustment systems (for instance from a push button to adjustability with a crank).
At Lensvelt we anticipate any change(s) of the initial requirements and/or needs in the workplace. Is there a need for a cable duct or new cladding? We convert fluorescent fixtures and desk lighting to LED lighting. We will arrange whatever needs to be done and pride ourselves on not just manufacturing new chairs and desks ready to be sold off.
