Herman Miller has had a goal of environmental friendliness that was evident in their facility designs, LEED-Certified buildings, and the formation of their Environmental Quality Action Team (EQAT). Through the rePurpose program, Herman Miller gives new life to things your organization no longer needs by sending furniture or any other asset to deserving nonprofits around the world, keeping them away from landfills. Herman Miller's dedication to the environment has now trickled down into the very products they offer.
Several of Herman Miller's chairs, including SAYL from Yves Behar, pride themselves on using fewer parts and less materials which ultimately mean less cost and a smaller carbon footprint. Combined with the fact that they are all at least 70% recyclable, with several options over 90% recyclable, Herman Miller's work chairs are the true product of Herman Miller's Design for the Environment (DfE) team, which is responsible for maintaining high standards while incorporating increasingly more environmentally sustainable materials, features, and manufacturing processes.
