Carbon footprint
The carbon footprint stands for the amount of greenhouse gas emissions (also referred to as carbon emissions) generated throughout a product's entire life cycle. The carbon footprint is most commonly expressed in CO2 equivalents (CO2e) as a standard measure for the warming effect of all greenhouse gases.
Recycling
Following the principle of the circular economy, Vitra uses the largest amount of recycled and recyclable materials possible.This proportion will increase as a result of ongoing product development.
Material composition
Vitra uses a wide range of materials that must all withstand stringent internal and external testing procedures. If a new material is found that is better for the environment and meets Vitra's quality criteria, suitable products are executed in that material.
Packaging & logistics
Vitra uses detailed information to elaborate targeted optimisation of transport routes. Preference is given to rail transport whenever feasible, and Vitra aims for the most efficient capacity management possible when using lorries. Packaging serves to protect the product and minimise the transport volume. Packaging is reduced wherever possible and materials are optimised in terms of their impact on the environment.
Supply chain
Vitra purchases its raw materials and components almost exclusively from suppliers in Europe, which simplifies compliance with uniform statutory standards and shortens transport routes. Vitra maintains long-term relationships with many of its suppliers, some spanning several decades, which is a key advantage for the further development of products, technologies and materials.

BIFMA
Tyde 2 fulfils the ANSI/BIFMA standard X5.1-2011, thus meeting the stringent safety requirements for the US market.

EPD
An EPD – environmental product declaration – provides transparency about the environmental impacts of a product throughout its life cycle, often referred to as life cycle assessment (LCA).

Tyde 2

Alternating between sitting and standing while working on the computer has proven to have health benefits, in contrast to just sitting. However, when planning office environments to suit contemporary work concepts, compromises are often necessary. This is not the case with Tyde 2: the sit-stand table system offers multiple configuration and equipment options, making everything possible from a single desk to a large bench. Single desks, double clusters and conference tables can be transformed into platforms to offer solutions for concentrated tasks, dynamic teamwork and meetings. And Tyde 2 fulfils a key requirement of modern workplaces: configurations can be easily adapted to changing situations and needs to ensure maximum flexibility. This is particularly true with the height-adjustable sit-stand tables on castors. Tyde 2 is characterised by clean lines combined with rounded contours, giving even expansive structures an understated aesthetic. Cable management is neat and orderly thanks to a cable channel and other electrification features. Additional elements and accessories, such as lamp holders, monitor arms or screens, can be freely positioned and attached using the sophisticated Tyde 2 bracket system. The table system comes in a choice of materials, making Tyde 2 a suitable addition to diverse settings. And the use of polyester fleece for the cable tray under the table top helps reduce noise in open-plan environments – particularly in combination with acoustic screens.
