Our philosophy

Protecting the environment and people's health is an important commitment for Leyform. That is why our chairs comply with the most stringent national and international standards for safety and for environmental protection and sustainability.

The initial idea

Leyform sostenibilita' e ambienteThe initial idea starts with the reuse over the years of the materials that make up our office, waiting and congress chairs; only in this way can the production be environmentally friendly. To achieve this, Leyform reduces waste and consequent disposal to a minimum.

Wide use is made of materials such as polypropylene, polyurethane, polyamide, steel and aluminium for all the component elements of Leyform community and office seating - especially metal parts, armrests and mechanisms. All these materials are universally recognized as recyclable.

Also when it comes to the upholstery Leyform uses fi bres obtained completely from recycled yarns; in addition the use of numerically controlled machines to cut the covers ensures that waste is reduced to a minimum.

Leyform complies with the latest international agreements to limit and reduce the so-called "greenhouse gases" in view of the environmen-tal alarm, the aim being to counter the global warming of our planet.

The timber that Leyform uses comes solely from controlled plantations, where the felled trees are regu-larly replaced, and not from the felling of rain forests such as the Amazon Forest.

Leyform pays great attention to the Cradle to Cradle philosophy, in other words the approach to design that consists of adapting industrial models to those of nature; this means converting production processes so that the materials used are similar to natural elements that must therefore be regenerated.

Philosophy, actions and conduct

People's health

For Leyform, protecting the environment and people's health is an important commitment. This is why our community chairs, office armchairs and waiting sofas comply with the strictest national and international regulations, both in terms of safety, ergonomics and environmental protection and sustainability.

Sustainable production process

The basic idea starts from the reuse of the row-materials that are part of our office armchairs, stackable community chairs and waiting sofas; it is only in this way that production can go hand by hand with eco-sustainability. To do this, Leyform tries to reduce waste along the entire production process and their consequent disposal to a minimum.

Customer and environment satisfaction

The search for customer satisfaction and respect for the environment are at the center of our action through the continuous adaptation of production processes. Products and ecological processes, rapid and innovative action, flexibility and, last but not least, respect for the characteristics for executive and task armchairs, community chairs and waiting sofas are the basis of all Leyform actions.

Legal requirements

All involved activities in the production of executive and task chairs, community chairs and waiting sofas meet the legal requirements and at the same time guarantee compliance with all local, national and international low in force that regulate environmental protection.

CO2 reduction in the atmosphere

Carbon dioxide (also called CO2) is a natural gas composed of 2 oxygen atoms and 1 carbon atom; together with methane, ozone and water vapor, it is also one of the major causes of the so-called greenhouse effect. Leyform is committed to the adoption of padding and polyurethanes produced without the use of CO2 during the expansion process.

Climate warming

Leyform meets to and respects the most recent international agreements, for the limitation and reduction of the so-called "greenhouse gases" with the aim of contrasting the climatic warming of our planet, characterized in general by the increase in global average temperature and by atmospheric phenomena it associated.
