Instead of going to a landfill, Think can be easily disassembled at the end of its life where parts can be individually recycled.

While we have made progress, there is still more to do. Our goals include achieving absolute emissions reductions by 2030, handling water as precious commodity, maintaining carbon neutrality, and motivating our suppliers to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Similar to how we measure and manage carbon emissions at our corporate level, we're doing the same with our products with our first CarbonNeutral® product , Steelcase Series™ 1.
Along with being commited to using recycled content in our plastic and paper-based packaging, we are also helping customers gain greater access to a network of end-of-use service providers. We will continue to phase out single-use plastics and increase recycled content in all packaging by 2030.
By 2023, new Steelcase brand products will incorporate Steelcase Sustainable Design framework criteria that includes sourcing materials responsibly, ensuring material health, and enabling end-of-life strategies like reuse and recycling.
We care about the people who make our products and the people who use them. That's why we are continuously improving transparency in materials, establishing a leadership position on product certifications, and keeping our facilities clean and safe for people and planet.
