Sustainability at Ojiibik

Designing for the Future, Acting for Today.

At Ojiibik, sustainability is a responsibility, not a mere checkbox. Our philosophy centers on rethinking, reducing, and regenerating, with the goal of creating inspiring spaces that minimize our environmental footprint.

This is why we partner with Teknion, a leader in responsible manufacturing, circular design, and material transparency. Rather than simply following sustainability standards, Teknion sets them. Their commitment to practices like responsible sourcing and carbon reduction ensures that every product we offer is as sustainable as it is innovative.

Circular by Design

We’re not in the business of waste. Teknion’s Divert program ensures that unwanted furniture never sees a landfill. It’s resold, donated, or ethically recycled. Every project is tracked, reported, and optimized for the best environmental, social, and economic impact.

Low Impact, High Performance.

Every Teknion product is crafted with sustainability at its core, meeting or exceeding industry-leading certifications:

  • BIFMA LEVEL®, LEED®, WELL® ‣ for holistic environmental and human well-being.

  • FSC®-Certified Wood ‣ responsibly sourced from sustainable forests.

  • Red List Free and VOC-Free ‣ ensuring cleaner air and healthier workspaces.

Carbon Commitment

Teknion takes full ownership of its manufacturing, ensuring greater control over sustainability. By aligning with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), they’ve set ambitious carbon reduction goals, and they’re delivering on them.

Designed for Every Body

Sustainability is also about people. Teknion’s approach to universal design and ergonomics ensures that every product is built for accessibility, inclusion, and well-being. From AODA-compliant workstations to adjustable, human-centric designs, we’re making workspaces work for everyone.

Beyond Greenwashing. Into Real Action.

Teknion doesn’t simply follow certifications; they consistently exceed them. We share a commitment to not only meet existing standards, but to push them forward. For us, sustainability isn’t about doing less harm—it’s about doing more good.

This is sustainability at Ojiibik. Smart, ethical, and built for the future.
