An environmentally conscious office is an important step towards sustainability. But how can you as the person responsible for workplace design find eco-friendly office supplies? Here are some tips on how to make sustainable choices:
Choose sustainable office equipment
When selecting office furniture and accessories, it is advisable to pay attention to sustainable options. Furniture made of wood from FSC-certified forests and seat cushions made from recycled materials are good examples. There are also lights and other electrical devices with the Energy Star label that consume less energy and thus conserve resources.
Use eco-friendly office materials
An easy way to promote sustainability in the office is to use eco-friendly office materials. Paper products and disposable tableware made from recycled materials and without chemical additives are a good choice. Pens and ballpoint pens made of wood or recycled plastic are also ecological alternatives to conventional products.
Eco-friendly workplace design
Placing plants in the office can not only improve air quality but also help employees feel more comfortable. Fixtures should be placed in a way that does not cause energy loss, for example, radiators should not be covered by furniture. Efficient spatial design can also improve the working atmosphere.
Sustainability as a goal
Sustainability should be a priority in every aspect of office life. Recycling stations should be placed near work areas to facilitate the recycling of paper, plastic, and other waste materials. The commute to work can also be made sustainable by providing bicycle parking spaces and e-bike charging stations.
Conclusion
An eco-friendly office can help reduce harmful effects on the environment, so companies and employees should take structured sustainable measures and pay attention to sustainability when choosing office supplies and workplace design. Small changes can already have significant impacts on environmental protection and help conserve resources.
