Reducing CO2 Emissions by Removing Furniture from Highways

TRIBOO’s NeverEnding Furniture collection—3D-printed circular furniture made from waste—paves the way for furniture transportation without trucks, boats, or trains.

Furniture no longer has to travel all over the world in traditional fossil-fuel-powered vehicles to reach its destination. Nor does furniture need to travel all over the world via electric vehicles. No, this circular furniture travels to its destination via digital highways made of fiber optics. It is printed locally in production hubs close to customers, so that only the last mile needs to be driven.

This can drastically reduce the CO2 footprint of furniture worldwide. The number of vehicles needed fossil or electric can also be reduced. This will create more space on existing highways and reduce wasted energy.

Do you think this is a distant future? No, it’s already possible today by having your furniture printed at one of our hubs. Eye-catching circular design elements such as table bases, planters, and lamps, to name just a few. TRIBOO currently offers this service in the Netherlands, Belgium, Slovakia, Abu Dhabi, and Australia. More countries will follow in the near future.

Help and work with TRIBOO to redesign your office, school, hotel or store. The more furniture we print, the more print hubs will be built. By choosing differently, together we will make an impact in reducing CO2 emissions and vehicle use.
