Our Ethical Tag System

The Boren Sideboard is crafted from trees that have already finished their commercial life producing mangoes. Instead of letting this wood burn to make room for new saplings, we repurpose it, giving it a new life while making room for fresh mango trees to thrive. All wood must meet EUTR standards and be sourced from responsibly managed forests.

Our furniture is designed with longevity in mind. Mango wood is known for its strength, durability, and ease of repair, making our pieces beautiful and practical. We believe in sourcing furniture that can be maintained, repaired, upcycled, and passed on rather than ending up in landfills.

Our Ethical Tag System

We are committed to being transparent, open, and honest about the environmental impact of our packaging. Our sustainable packaging initiative ranks each product based on how sustainably it is packaged.

This product has earned our Silver Tier, meaning we use recyclable materials wherever possible and some non-recyclable materials for justifiable reasons. Polystyrene provides the best protection for our furniture during transportation and ensures your product arrives undamaged.

We will continue to evaluate and improve our packaging over the coming years, aiming to minimise waste and find more sustainable alternatives wherever possible.
