Pioneers in Sustainable Plastic

From the outset, we have produced high-quality polypropylene chairs, capable of withstanding the toughest environments for decades. Now, we are leading the way in using recycled content in our polypropylene based products:

100%

Of all the polypropylene we use is recyclable

30%

The minimum amount of recycled polypropylene used in our plastic products

1,000 tonnes

Of UK post-consumer plastic is repurposed annually in our manufacturing

100%

Of polypropylene used in our Sebel chair is from post-consumer waste 

Commitment to 100% recycled content

We are committed to progressing towards 100% recycled content across KI products. Our black polypropylene products already meet this goal. However, maintaining our famous colour spectrum with 100% recycled materials presents a unique challenge due to the inherent complexity of mixed colour recycled plastics. We are proud to lead the industry with a minimum of 30% recycled polypropylene, and we are on track to reach 50% this year.

Sustainable By Design

What people want out of commercial spaces is constantly evolving. That’s why we design for longevity. Not just through the quality of our products, but by engineering our products to be reshaped to ever changing environments.

Modular
& flexible designs

Our system-based products are modular, meaning they can be scaled and adapted over time. Product modules and components can easily be replaced if damaged or upgraded to integrate with new office designs and new spaces.

Designed for longevity

We prioritise retrofit solutions in our product design, enabling our customers to evolve their spaces efficiently. For instance, Work2.1 actuators can transform fixed-height desk systems into BS EN 527 compliant sit-stand desks. Our 800 Series storage systems are designed with full modularity, allowing for seamless adaptation to evolving needs.
