Welcome to Outernal Original Furniture, your premier destination for sustainable and environmentally friendly furniture. At OOF, we believe that furniture should not only be beautifully designed and functional but also contribute positively to the planet. With a strong commitment to sustainability, we are dedicated to crafting high-quality furniture while minimising our environmental footprint. We're creating a greener future, one piece of furniture at a time.
We are committed to using wood that is grown without the use of harmful pesticides or chemicals. This not only benefits the environment but also has a positive impact on our valued customers. By choosing pesticide-free farming methods, we ensure that our furniture is free from any residual toxins, promoting a healthier environment for both our customers and the planet. Pesticide residues can have adverse effects on human health, ranging from allergies and respiratory issues to more severe long-term health concerns. Experience the benefits of pesticide-free farming with OOF — enjoy a healthier home, stylish designs, and the satisfaction of making an eco-conscious choice.
We take pride in crafting and manufacturing our furniture in our state-of-the-art facility where we employ environmentally friendly manufacturing techniques. We ensure that our production processes adhere to strict sustainability standards, minimising energy consumption and reducing emissions. We have integrated energy-saving measures, such as utilising energy-efficient machinery and optimising production schedules to minimise energy waste. Our facility is equipped with advanced lighting systems that utilise energy-efficient bulbs and sensors, ensuring that energy is utilised only when and where it is needed.
Quality control is also a priority for us. We use water-based finishes that enhance the aesthetic appeal of our furniture while reducing the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Water-based finishes help protect both your health and the environment. Unlike traditional solvent-based finishes, water-based finishes release fewer VOCs into the air, promoting better indoor air quality and reducing harm to the planet. Our water-based finishes not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of our furniture but also contribute to healthier indoor air quality.
We place great emphasis on using non-toxic materials. One of our key priorities is ensuring that our products are free from harmful substances like formaldehyde. Commonly found in various furniture product, exposure can lead to a range of health issues, including respiratory problems, skin irritations, and allergic reactions. We subject our furniture to independent EN testing for formaldehyde emissions. By proactively testing and adhering to these rigorous testing standards, we can confidently assure our customers that our furniture is formaldehyde emission free and poses no health risks, providing you with furniture that is safe and healthy for use in your home or office regardless of environment, creating a safe and comfortable environment for you and your loved ones.
We are dedicated to minimising waste throughout our operations as part of our commitment to sustainability. Any leftover materials from our manufacturing processes are recycled or repurposed, reducing landfill waste. We continuously evaluate our practices to find innovative ways to further reduce waste generation. We analyse and optimise production flows to minimise material waste, and any leftover materials are recycled or repurposed whenever possible. These waste reduction measures contribute to minimising our impact on landfills and promoting a circular economy where resources are kept in use for as long as possible.
We believe in sustainable packaging and shipping practices. We carefully select packaging materials that are not only protective and sturdy but also biodegradable. Whenever possible, we utilise recyclable materials such as cardboard, paper, and biodegradable foam to secure and safeguard our furniture during transportation. By partnering with environmentally conscious shipping carriers, we strive to minimise the carbon footprint associated with the transportation of our products. We utilise energy-efficient vehicles and leverage route optimisation techniques to minimise fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.

By embracing eco-friendly practices, OOF actively participates in the circular economy. By recycling or repurposing our furniture, we reduce the demand for new raw materials and the energy-intensive processes associated with their extraction and production. This helps to preserve natural resources and mitigate the environmental impact typically associated with manufacturing. Our commitment to the circular economy goes beyond the product itself. We strive to minimise waste throughout our operations, including optimising production processes to reduce material waste and implementing recycling programs for packaging materials. We ensure that our entire supply chain follows circular principles, further minimising waste generation and maximising resource efficiency.
By ensuring no virgin forests are destroyed and sourcing wood from sustainable forests, we actively protect valuable ecosystems and preserve biodiversity. We believe that by prioritising sustainable sourcing practices, we can make a significant impact on the conservation of valuable natural resources. Choosing OOF supports sustainable forestry practices, minimises deforestation, and safeguards the diversity of life on our planet.
