Our retail – the key to sustainable decisions

Kitchen studios and furniture stores are the interface to the end customer and should also provide good advice on sustainability. Proper assembly is another important aspect when looking at this topic in the round: mistakes put additional pressure on resources. And the same applies to the transport packaging used for our furniture components.

Assembly Academy

Training kitchen fitters

Well-trained employees are a valuable asset from a social and sustainability point of view. Kitchen fitters play a key role here. If they make mistakes, products then have to be delivered again or remade – with a resulting knock-on effect on resources. Well-trained fitters, on the other hand, make a positive contribution to conserving resources. That’s why nobilia has decided to establish an Assembly Academy that should help to provide kitchen fitters with professional skills.

Transport packaging: ensuring recycling takes place

We use transport packaging to make sure that our kitchen furniture is secure and well-protected until it reaches the end customer. This can be easily recycled. To make sure this happens, nobilia has partnered with Recycling Kontor Transportverpackung (RKT). Our customers simply have to contact RKT to let them know they’re expecting a nobilia delivery. RKT then ensures that the different elements of the transport packaging are collected and taken for recycling. The environmental advantage is that all transport packaging is purposefully collected and recycled.
