The U.S. discards approximately 12 million tons of furniture annually. To address this environmental concern, companies are increasingly reusing existing office furniture during renovations, reducing waste and embodied carbon while achieving cost savings and creating personalized workspaces. Brett Gardner, Director of Sustainability at IA and others note a growing trend over the past five years of clients integrating reused furniture to meet environmental, social, and governance (ESG) goals, thereby supporting decarbonization efforts.
