save up to 99% in greenhouse gas emissions<\/a> compared to new furniture.<\/p>\n\n\n\nEnergy saving<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nFurniture manufacturing also requires significant amounts of energy for the extraction of raw materials, manufacturing processes, transport and assembly. Buying used furniture significantly reduces the energy required to make new furniture. According to a 2013 study by the London Environment Agency, buying used furniture can generate up to 73% of energy savings compared to new furniture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Waste reduction<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nSecond-hand furniture is a form of recycling as it helps to reduce waste of old furniture. When furniture is no longer used, it often ends up in landfills, which contributes to pollution. Buying second-hand furniture extends the useful life of furniture and thus avoids waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But not only used furniture awaits a new chance, there are also many other categories of furniture that can no longer be sold as “new” for various reasons. So-called B-goods, products from previous seasons or returns that have suffered minor scratches or damage during transport can no longer be offered in the usual sales channels. COCOLI allows us to give this furniture a second life and we make it part of the circular economy by prolonging the life cycle of furniture and reducing the production of new products.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Reducing consumption and promoting circular economy are essential steps towards sustainable living.
