Sustainable Products

Here are some examples for sustainable products.


   

1. Garden Vegetables

With no pesticides or artificial fertilizers, vegetables grown in backyard gardens are fantastic sustainable products. They use fully cyclic kitchen composted waste and are much better than vegetables grown with artificial fertilizers the may cause pollution in manufacturing. This also saves fuel with less trips to the supermarket and energy used by the refrigerator.

This Swedish made inflatable furniture for IKEA and Muji in Japan has an inflatable body made of 100% recyclable polylefin. Compared with a traditional sofa, it uses 83% less materials, takes up around 10% of space during transportation and storage in the warehouse. The easily removable fabric cover keeps it fashionable and extends the product life.
