Nachhaltigkeit & innovation – Umweltfreundliches Design mit Verantwortung
David Trubridge is a pioneer in sustainable design. His company is committed to using environmentally friendly manufacturing processes and keeping its carbon footprint as low as possible.
1. SEED SYSTEM – packaging with minimal resource consumption
A unique feature of its lights is the patented seed system:
The lights are delivered as kits - packed flat and transported to save space
This reduces transport volume by up to 95%, significantly reducing CO₂ emissions
Customers can assemble the lights themselves, creating a personal connection to the design
2. Nachhaltige Materialien & Produktion
FSC-certified bamboo wood as the main material - biodegradable and sustainably harvested
Long-lasting LED technology for energy-efficient lighting
Environmentally friendly paints and varnishes, free from harmful chemicals
100% recyclable packaging materials
Thanks to these ecological principles, the company was awarded the prestigious B Corp certification, which honors companies for social and environmental responsibility.
