Sustainability
At Surestyle, we are deeply committed to sustainability and environmental responsibility. Our innovative, modular shelving systems are designed with eco-conscious principles at the forefront, ensuring that we contribute positively to the environment while providing high-quality, adaptable solutions for your space.
Understanding Modularity
Our modular zoning and display systems are designed for flexibility and efficiency. Easy assembled to create micro-architectural structures, they can be customised to define and adapt to various spaces and purposes. By flat-packing our units, we significantly reduce the packaging material, increase transportation efficiency, and lower fuel consumption per unit. This approach not only optimises logistical operations but also substantially decreases our carbon footprint, aligning with our sustainability goals.
Materials
We take pride in using sustainable materials in our modular systems. Our primary material, Tubular Steel, is coated with a Dulux Mannex finish to ensure durability and longevity. We also incorporate a variety of high-quality materials, including:
- Mild Steel
- Bestwood
- Melteca
- Golden Edge MDF
All our materials are sourced and manufactured using sustainable production methods and materials. Prefinished panels are a significant part of our offerings, providing both convenience and consistent quality. When custom finishes are required, we tailor our processes to meet specific aesthetic and functional needs without compromising our commitment to sustainability.
Regarding fabrics, we prioritise quality and reliability in our selections. While we don't adhere to any particular brand exclusively, we often source from reputable suppliers such as Warwick Fabrics. Warwick's extensive range and commitment to excellence align well with our standards for durability, aesthetics, and customer satisfaction. By partnering with trusted suppliers like Warwick, we ensure that the fabrics used in our projects meet the highest standards of quality and performance.
Durability and Longevity
Our dedication to sustainability extends to the durability of our products. We prioritise materials known for their resilience and longevity, such as moisture-resistant substrates found in melamine or Melteca finishes by Prime Panels. Powder-coated finishes offer additional moisture resistance, though we recommend aluminum in areas prone to wet conditions to prevent rust and extend the product's life. By focusing on durable materials, we reduce the need for frequent replacements, minimizing waste and conserving resources. This conscientious approach supports a circular economy and responsible consumption.
Certifications and Standards
Here at Surestyle, we are committed to using materials that are safe and environmentally friendly. We source exclusively from manufacturers with GreenStar ratings, Home ratings, or ECNZ certifications. Our adherence to low or no formaldehyde products whenever possible further emphasizes our commitment to health and environmental standards. We also follow FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) and PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) guidelines to ensure responsible sourcing and forest conservation practices.
Social Impact
Redefine the spaces that you live, work, learn and love. By incorporating ergonomic displays and shelving, it will provide comfortable workspaces, or create inviting areas which will enhance employee and customer satisfaction, productivity, and overall well-being. We contribute to a positive social impact, promoting healthier, more efficient, and more enjoyable spaces for everyone.
