Sustainable Certifications

At Luxaflex ®, We don’t just say our product solutions are sustainable – we verify they are with leading, highly respected independent institutions and we commit to international sustainability standards.

Learn how the certified materials and design processes we use, help you to create a beautiful and sustainable home for your family.

Using materials and processes that meet the highest possible standards for safety and sustainability are central to the Luxaflex® vision.

To assess and certify the soundness of our materials, we have adopted the internationally recognised Cradle to Cradle Certified™ product standard.

The starting point for the Cradle-Cradle approach is that at the end of a product's lifecycle it can become a source for something new. Not simply recyclable, but a high-quality source having at least the same quality as the original material.

Why is a healthy indoor environment important?

The majority of everyday chemical exposure in people occurs through the air we breathe in our homes, offices, schools, and other indoor environments. Commonly referred to as volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

These airborne chemicals are used to manufacture building materials, interior furnishing, cleaning products, and personal care products. VOCs can include both naturally occurring and man-made compounds and some VOCs are harmful to our health.

What does the OEKO-TEX® label mean?

STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® is one of the world's best-known labels for textiles tested for harmful substances. It stands for customer confidence and high product safety. This globally recognised standard with test criteria is updated at least once a year on the basis of new scientific information or statutory requirements.

This independent certification and product label enable companies like Luxaflex® to make responsible decisions in favour of products that are harmless to health, environmentally friendly and manufactured in a fair manner.

What does FSC® certified mean?

The FSC® system allows businesses and consumers to identify, purchase and use wood, paper, and other forest products made with materials from well-managed forests and/or recycled sources.

Luxaflex® Wood blinds and Shutters are made from FSC® certified wood from responsibly managed forests. FSC® is an international, non-governmental organisation dedicated to promoting responsible management of the world’s forests.
