Sustainability at Louis Poulsen

Our approach

At Louis Poulsen, we believe that sustainability encompasses a wide range of activities, and we are committed to working with many different aspects. As a high-end design company, we work intentionally to improve our products’ sustainability in every phase of the product life cycle, from design to end-of-life. Additionally, we are committed to ensuring that we strengthen our relationship with the communities we serve, while creating value for both our employees and people around the world. 

We aim to work with different aspects of sustainability, which is why we work with three main sustainability pillars, namely: Design for the Planet, Design for People and Design for Culture.
