Eco-Conscious Living: Unveiling ROOM IN A BOX
When ROOM IN A BOX emerged in 2013, their founders shared a vision: furniture should be more than just functional—it should also be sustainable and affordable. With this ethos, they set out to create cardboard furniture that embodies sophistication and environmental responsibility.
The Heart of Their Concept: Cardboard Bed 2.0
At the core of ROOM IN A BOX lies their iconic Bed 2.0, crafted entirely from corrugated cardboard. Here’s why it stands out:
- Circular Material: The cardboard used contains 54% to 80% recycled material, complemented by virgin fibers from sustainable forestry. This blend ensures stability while minimizing environmental impact.
- Vegan Starch Glue: Instead of harmful adhesives, ROOM IN A BOX employs vegan starch glue made from potato, corn, or wheat starch. It’s both eco-friendly and effective.
- Water-Based Printing Inks: Their commitment extends to the finishing touches. Water-based printing inks adorn the cardboard, ensuring a safe and sustainable product.
Modular Flexibility and Creativity
ROOM IN A BOX designs furniture with modular construction methods. What does this mean for you?
- High Flexibility: Components are easily replaceable, allowing you to modify and adapt your furniture as needed.
- Environmentally Friendly Assembly: Preassembled by hand, their bed arrives ready to use. No harmful glues, just thoughtful design.
Zero Waste Production
ROOM IN A BOX minimizes waste from the outset:
- Efficient Die-Cutting: Novel processes preserve the corrugated cardboard during production, resulting in stability and aesthetics.
- Recycling Loop: Any cardboard scraps generated return directly to recycling, closing the loop.
Indoor Climate and Durability
Made in Germany, ROOM IN A BOX’s sustainable furniture balances low emissions with exceptional durability. It’s a win for both your home and the planet.
