Sustainable Materialogy
Interior contract materials can contribute profoundly to our comfort, warmth and inspiration – our feelings of wellbeing. But how can they contribute to the wellbeing of the planet?
As makers of materials in today’s challenged world, we’ve undertaken the responsibility to produce in the most conscious way we can. Having our own production facilities gives us the agency to not only scrutinise everything from our raw materials to our manufacturing methods with a focus on sustainability and wellbeing, but to actually develop, make and distribute eco-conscious interior materials.
Producing materials inevitably generates waste. Mirroring Vescom’s approach to materials – letting their individual, innate qualities and properties lead their design – and continuing our longstanding practice of addressing our own waste through reuse, we’ve developed different innovative strategies for dealing with waste that befit each of our materials.
Our focus on high performance and our consistent material-driven DNA have always produced connections between our different product groups – materials, colours and textures recur across Vescom’s wallcovering, upholstery and curtain fabrics. Sustainability is simply part of the same holistic toolkit. Materials with a common ground for a common good – that’s Vescom’s Sustainable Materialogy.
