When you walk through a work environment—whether at an office, school, restaurant, or store—you don’t always stop to think about it. The fact is, desk and table tops, because of their surface area, have a major impact on the aesthetics of a space. Often, you also don’t realize that a lot of material is needed and CO2 is emitted to create these heavy, solid-wood surfaces. But there’s another way!

These are circular workstations from TRIBOO made with the innovative, lightweight #greengridz countertop! Depending on the thickness of the countertop, each workstation, desk, or table uses between 60 and 90% less material and emits 60% less CO2 than the heavy, solid particleboard countertops that are the industry standard.

And because #greengridz tabletops are made with less material, the waste problem is reduced before it even arises. Using less material means fewer trips, less sorting, and less recycling. And that’s exactly what nobody in the industry wants! Except us!

By applying these circular design principles in practice within the circular office furniture market, we have achieved an extremely low MKI score of €2.31. With this, we are setting a new standard in circularity and outperforming heavy, solid desk and table tops made of particleboard (€3.64) and plywood (€7.01).  

For #architects, #purchasers, #facility managers, #interior designers, and #furniture manufacturers, this low MKI score offers a clear advantage. It’s not only better for the planet, but also a strategic tool for meeting increasingly stringent sustainability requirements. By choosing #greengridz, you’re choosing measurable proof of sustainability. The numbers speak for themselves.
