Lasting 3R kitchen
• Carbon footprint calculated for the entire kitchen lifecycle.
• Materials adversely affecting the environment have been removed.
• Less weight. Less is more.
• A Miinus kitchen is a total furniture system than is modifiable.
• The kitchen materials are re-useable, easy-care and recyclable.
• The product’s lifecycle carbon footprint has been taken into account from start to finish.
• Once at the end of its lifecycle, the furniture can be recycled, re-used or disposed of by burning, depending on the material. Reuse, Reduce, Recycle.
Years of long-term work with Finnish researchers and experts in different fields were required to make the ecological Miinus kitchen a reality. Success didn’t happen overnight, but after numerous trials and errors, 3D modelling, tests and carbon footprint calculations. The calculations took into account the entire lifecycle of Miinus kitchen furniture, including all materials, components and transport.
• Fact based on carbon footprint calculations
• Materials adversely affecting the environment have been removed
• Carbon footprint calculated for the entire kitchen lifecycle
• End point of the product lifecycle has also been taken into account
• Less is more
• Proven ecological materials and production methods
• Carbon footprint, including transport, calculated for the entire lifecycle
