This Earth Day, make small changes at home for a world of difference
Our ambition is to become climate positive by 2030, with the potential to repurpose, repair, reuse, recycle or resell built in to all our products. Even now, there are easy ways to prolong the life of your furniture rather than send it to a landfill. Here are small decisions you can make today to have a positive impact on the planet.
Families grow, living spaces change, lifestyles evolve. So choosing furniture, like a children's bed that grows with them or a modular shelving unit, is a smart way to make a positive impact on the environment and your budget.
Eventually, your well-used furniture will show signs of everyday wear and tear. Often, you can give it a whole new lease of life with very little cost or effort. Try adding a fresh coat of paint or stain when inspiration strikes!
You can easily find most of the spare parts you need to fix your IKEA furniture. Many people enjoy the satisfying quest of mending and reusing, rather than throwing away – your wallet and the environment will also feel the benefit.
