‘Sustainability is no longer a nice to have’

The furniture industry members has been urged to ensure their place at Making Commercial Sense of Sustainability, with less than a month to go before the event.

The 19 March event will bring together business leaders, sustainability experts, manufacturers, designers and specifiers to examine how sustainability can be embedded into business strategy in a way that supports growth, resilience and long-term profitability.

Taking place at Furniture Makers’ Hall, London, the event will offer practical insights rather than theory, addressing how businesses can respond realistically and competitively. Topics will include managing climate risk, navigating sustainability legislation, communicating credible sustainability messages, and adopting circular economy principles that add value rather than cost.

‘Sustainability is no longer a “nice to have”: it is central to commercial decision-making. This event is about cutting through complexity and focusing on what genuinely makes business sense, helping companies move forward with confidence rather than hesitation,’ says Joanna Knight, The Furniture Makers’ Company Climate Change and Sustainability Committee chairman.

The event is sponsored by British Furniture Association, Furniture Industry Sustainability Programme (FISP), Ocee + Four Design, Panaz, SATRA, and the UK Sustainable Flooring Alliance.
