Our Workshop Partners must share and promote the same values that we uphold here at Urban Natural. Luonto takes pride in following sustainable business practices and producing ethically-sourced, handcrafted products for you and your home.  To help reduce their carbon footprint, Luonto has implemented multiple eco-friendly procedures before, during, and after the production process.

With five production lines, Luonto produces thousands of pounds of wood dust daily. The dust is collected and compressed into pellets, then used to heat production lines in the harsh Northern Europe winters. Extra wood dust is used to heat local schools. Additionally, all foam is precut by their supplier to minimize waste, and scraps are re-allocated for use in other industries. While this process is not required, it's another great way to promote environmental responsibility, diminish waste, and maximize the usage of raw materials. Excess fabric from upholstery cutting is recycled into felted padding and repurposed for other furniture,  Other upholstery waste is sold to local artisans who can use materials for their own projects.

Luonto follows strict guidelines and restrictions to ensure that materials are sustainably harvested and safe for you and the environment. All of our Workshop Partners must show proper documentation to prove that all certifications are valid.

 Solid wood components are certified by PEDC – a group of over 80 worldwide members who work to promote sustainable forest management and ensure our forests will be around for generations to come. Plywood components are certified by the FSC, which states that the wood was sourced from a forest managed in a way that preserves biological diversity and improves the lives of local people and workers while also ensuring economic viability.

Polyurethane foams are certified using CertiPUR, a voluntary testing, analysis, and certification program for the environment, health, and safety properties of PU foam. Certain fabrics are OekoTex certified and tested to ensure maximum consumer safety and help consumers and companies make responsible decisions that safeguard our planet for future generations. Other fabrics are REACH regulated, meaning they were designed to improve the protection of human health and the environment from the chemical dangers of raw materials, dyes, and protective coatings. Fabrics also use SAFE FRONT AquaClean components that limit virus and bacteria penetration into the fabric.
