Our Zero Waste office fit outSpruceUp
Last summer, we moved into new offices in the Innovation Quarter, Ballina. This new open space was a blank canvas and gave us the opportunity to use materials that reflected our mission of regenerative design. A lot of the materials currently used in office ‘fit outs’ can be harmful to your health and the environment in its production. Therefore, we had to find materials that met our sustainable standards and mission of accelerating the Green Transition.
Using zero waste design principles we designed a modular system which was built by Jamie clabburn. Our design ensured there was no waste by using full panel lengths and incorporating a variety of features including subdivisions, shelving and cupboards.
The solution is built using Coillte's MEDITE SMARTPLY, a more sustainable material, with an EPD and made from off-cuts of forest thinning of new-growth pine and spruce forestry. This keeps production local and minimizes waste while ensuring durability. the system is scalable and adaptable, offering flexibility in configuration to meet our design firm’s immediate and future needs.
