SUSTAINABILITY
SetUp was born with the ambition of reducing environmental impact to a minimum and contributes to the health of the planet: composed entirely of sheet steel, it is 100% recyclable, extremely durable, has infinite possibilities for transformation and application in every room of the home and office and at the end of its use it can be sold as scrap iron and reintroduced into the infinite life cycle of steel.
The polyester powder paint used does not emit VOCs (volatile organic compounds), does not contain heavy metals, does not contain solvents and is not flammable.
Even the packaging used is totally eco-sustainable, in fact the SetUp modules are first wrapped in biodegradable and compostable protective bags and then packaged in cardboard.
Deciding to adopt an eco-friendly lifestyle inside and outside the home has become a must-have that captures the attention of everyone, from architects to designers. Over the years, industry professionals have made choices aimed at eco-sustainability.
We must therefore always pay attention to everything that fills our homes.
The first way to help the environment is to choose solid and durable materials. It may seem trivial, but choosing resistant and long-lasting products combats the greatest form of waste, namely: “disposable”.
What remains intact for a long time can always be revisited, transformed or sold, continuing to live and saving a lot of energy.
Indoor emissions are an underestimated problem. Without knowing it, we breathe in substances that are harmful to our health every day, and even furniture contributes to this type of emissions. SetUp has zero emissions. We and our children are safe.
WHAT MAKES A PIECE OF FURNITURE “SUSTAINABLE”?
The MATERIAL it is made of
SetUp is made ENTIRELY of cold-rolled steel: 100% sustainable material with a potentially infinite life cycle.
It must be REUSABLE, RECYCLABLE and LONG-LASTING
SetUp could potentially last forever, but if you get bored of it you can reconfigure it as you like or reuse it in any other environment or if you really want to dispose of it you can dispose of it as ferrous scrap: you will receive the market value of the scrap in money and it will start living again in the infinite cycle of iron.
The use of the labor used for its construction must respect the RIGHTS of the workers
SetUp is entirely produced in Italy in a company with over 35 years of activity by metalworkers regularly employed with the National Collective Bargaining Agreement
Paints must be ECOLOGICAL
SetUp is painted with epoxy powders that do not contain VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds), the set of toxic chemical compounds released by materials, paints and glues used in the furniture sector, of which formaldehyde, for example, is the most harmful.
Packaging must be RECYCLABLE
SetUp will arrive wrapped in a biodegradable envelope (used to protect the surface from possible scratches caused by rubbing) contained in turn in recyclable and FSC-certified cardboard packaging.
