Understanding Environmental Accreditations: Making Better Choices for Your Workspace

At OPD, we’re committed to offering products that don’t just perform well, but also deliver better outcomes for the environment. That’s why we partner with suppliers like Eden, who lead the way in sustainable design, responsible sourcing, and circular manufacturing.
Not all “sustainable” claims are equal. Independent certifications provide verified assurance that products meet strict environmental and health standards. At Eden, sustainability is embedded across the entire product lifecycle.

TOITU NET CARBONZERO CERTIFICATION
Toitu Envirocare’s Net Carbonzero certification is aligned with ISO 14067 and verifies that a product’s lifecycle carbon emissions are measured, reduced in line with strict requirements, and the remaining emissions are offset. Certified products demonstrate a reduced carbon footprint, strong lifecycle management, and a commitment to giving more back than they take from the environment.

AFRDI GREEN TICK CERTIFICATION
The AFRDI Green Tick confirms products meet global standards for ethical sourcing, low-toxicity materials, and sustainable manufacturing. It assesses product stewardship, compliance, durability, recyclability, and responsible material selection. Recognised by both the NZ Green Building Council and the Green Building Council of Australia, it also contributes to Green Star building ratings.

GREENGUARD CERTIFICATION
GREENGUARD Certification ensures products meet strict chemical emissions standards, supporting healthier indoor environments. With indoor air pollution often significantly higher than outdoors, GREENGUARD Gold certified products are tested for low VOC emissions, helping reduce exposure to harmful chemicals linked to health issues such as asthma and allergies.

FSC® CHAIN OF CUSTODY
FSC certification guarantees that timber comes from responsibly managed forests that meet environmental, social, and economic standards. The chain of custody system ensures certified materials are tracked through every stage of the supply chain. Eden Office is independently audited to maintain FSC certification across its product range.

The Eden Spectrum Chair: Sustainability Without Compromise
The Eden Spectrum chair brings these principles together, holding all four key certifications. It delivers high performance, ergonomic comfort, and strong environmental credentials making it a smart choice for modern workplaces.

Remanufactured Spectrum 3: A Circular Solution
Eden also offers the Remanufactured Spectrum 3, a circular alternative designed to reduce waste and extend product life. Each chair is made using at least 50% pre-used components and restored to meet the same standards of comfort, durability, and performance as new.
Available in two models:
• Spectrum 3
• Spectrum 3 with Arms

Both options deliver the trusted ergonomic support of the Spectrum range, while significantly reducing environmental impact through reuse and refurbishment.
