Humanscale Launches ‘Refreshed’ Program
The B Corp Certified designer and manufacturer takes a bold leap in circular design and sustainable manufacturing to extend the lifespan of products intentionally built for reuse.
Humanscale, the leading designer and manufacturer of high-performance ergonomic products from seating to height-adjustable desks, today announces Refreshed, a first-of-its-kind circularity program that ensures its products get a second (and perhaps third) life, in an industry where manufacturers have focused on a single-use model. Starting today, expertly restored Humanscale products will be available for consumer purchase. From pioneering healthy materials and transparency, introducing the industry’s first third-party certified carbon negative products, to launching the world’s first chair made from reclaimed fishing nets, the Refreshed Collection reaffirms Humanscale’s long-standing leadership and commitment to sustainability by creating a roadmap for circular success.
“Due to high recycling costs and inadequate infrastructure, overcoming systemic obstacles in sustainability requires substantial changes in manufacturing, consumer behavior and waste management,” said Jane Abernethy, Chief Sustainability Officer of Humanscale. “Humanscale continues to innovate, shaping new processes for our industry and bridging the gap to a circular economy. Refreshed is a responsible and planet positive program for our customers to breathe new life into our products that are built to be used again and again.”
Guided by the core philosophy that good design achieves more with less, Humanscale is setting the bar for circularity in two phases: product design and the circular system through which the product gets reused. For decades, its products have been designed around four key pillars to optimize for a circular model
