Sustainability

Ethan's foundation is built on a steadfast commitment to sustainability, striving to minimise our environmental footprint at every turn.

From carefully selecting sustainable materials to adopting processes that reduce waste, our approach is holistic. We're dedicated to crafting furniture that not only stands the test of time but does so with respect for our planet.

Our Eco-Conscious Commitment

Durability and Longevity

Choosing Ethan means more than just acquiring a piece of furniture; it's a conscious decision to reject the throwaway culture. Our pieces are designed for lasting quality, style, and comfort, bringing immense long-term benefits such as lower overall costs and a positive environmental impact.

We believe that investing in well considered furniture allows you to live better, with less, and a product that lasts longer.

A Continuation of Our Commitment

Our direct-to-client sales approach doesn't end with a purchase; it extends into after-sales services that leave our clients consistently in awe. From repair and refurbishment to rehoming, we ensure every Ethan piece continues to enrich lives.

As the manufacturer we offer a full range of spare parts to ensure your furniture performs at the highest level. This natural extension of our service highlights the lasting impact of our furniture, both in quality and environmental sustainability.

Community and Environment

Beyond furniture, Ethan is deeply involved in community and environmental initiatives.

From donating to local sports clubs and educational programs, including our old hand tools to places such as the Mangawhai Nature Education school, to planting a native tree for every Ethan Setting sold, via the Trees That Count program, we aim to give back in meaningful ways.

These actions reflect our broader commitment to sustainability and supporting local communities.

Reducing Our Carbon Footprint

Ethan Outdoor Furniture prioritises sustainability by using natural timbers and materials designed for longevity and recyclability, significantly reducing our carbon footprint.

Transitioning from bubble wrap to recyclable cardboard, sourced from local importers, enhances our packaging sustainability. We embrace the latest non-toxic adhesives for safer, environmentally friendly construction.

Carefully managing timber and fabric offcuts minimises waste; surplus materials are creatively transformed into timber blocks for children, blending eco-conscious practices with community support. This thorough approach underscores our dedication to environmental stewardship and innovation.
