Humanscale Climate positive products
First company to achieve climate positive
A Sustainable Revolution
In an era where environmental sustainability is paramount, corporations face increasing pressure to not just mitigate harm, but to actively contribute positively to the planet. Humanscale, a leading advocate for sustainability, is pioneering this movement by introducing a range of net positive products that go beyond mere reduction of negative impacts to actively reversing environmental damage.
Commitment to Sustainability
Humanscale’s ethos is firmly rooted in sustainability, recognizing that in the face of the climate crisis, traditional approaches are no longer sufficient. Over 70% of their products are certified climate positive, meaning they not only minimize harm but actively contribute to the Earth’s restoration.
Ethical Sourcing and Material Innovation
These climate-positive products are sourced ethically, utilizing recycled and upcycled materials, and are devoid of toxins. With each manufacturing cycle, these products are paired with environmental actions that exceed their embodied energy, carbon, and water values, ensuring a net positive impact on the environment.
Third-Party Validation
To validate their claims, Humanscale’s products undergo rigorous third-party certification by the Living Product Challenge (LPC), ensuring they meet stringent sustainability criteria across seven impact categories. This certification process guarantees that the products are not just sustainable but regenerative, offering widespread benefits to both people and the planet.
Embracing Tangible Actions
Unlike conventional offsetting methods, Humanscale refrains from purchasing carbon credits, opting instead for tangible projects with quantifiable positive impacts, termed as ‘handprints.’ Examples include sponsoring tree planting initiatives and installing solar panels in communities, showcasing their commitment to real, measurable change.
Continued Innovation and Expansion
With a goal to have an overall positive impact on the planet, Humanscale’s net positive product portfolio has grown significantly over the years. From just two climate-positive products in 2016 to 29 in 2024, the company continues to expand its offerings, with plans to introduce three additional seating products this month.
The Power of Choice
By choosing sustainable products and practices, consumers have the power to join Humanscale in their mission to create a better future for the planet. Each purchase becomes a statement in support of environmental stewardship, contributing to a collective effort towards sustainability and regeneration.
