Sustainability
At Colebrook Bosson Saunders, our commitment to sustainability is grounded in the mission to design for human well-being and be a positive force for our people, customers, communities, and the planet.
Environmental Stewardship
Environmental stewardship underpins our commitment to minimising environmental impact by focusing on four key areas: sustainable materials; circular design; carbon reduction; and designing out waste across our products, operations, and value chain. A core part of our heritage since the introduction of Gemini, our designs are made to last.
Driving Impact: Our 2030 Sustainability Targets
Embracing circular design to create the best products, in the most sustainable way.
We have set 14 clear targets to advance climate action, wellbeing, and transparency while driving measurable, urgent progress through better design and decisions.
Design for Low Carbon Impact
We lower carbon impact by maximising recycled content, minimising material use, and designing durable products built for longevity and reuse.
90% Plastic-Free Packaging
Our switch to recyclable, biodegradable packaging cuts single-use plastics, simplifies recycling, and improves the installation experience.
Committed to Safe Materials
We follow leading standards like the Living Building Challenge Red List to ensure our materials and chemistry support healthier, safer environments.
Designed for Longevity
Durability is embedded in every product we create. With long warranties and rigorous lifecycle testing, our products are made to last, with timeless and adaptable designs, helping to preserve valuable resources.
Sustainable Ergonomics
By using materials with high recycled content and focusing on low-carbon manufacturing, we aim to deliver performance with a lighter footprint, advancing both human well-being and environmental responsibility.
Human Health and Well-being
At CBS, well-being is at our core: We lead in ergonomic design and champion social impact, supporting healthier workplaces and thriving local communities.
