SDG 12: Towards circularity in the furniture industry with Robert Milder
Description
Robert Milder is a designer, an environmentalist and the founder of Van de Sant- a sustainable design furniture company that makes fully circular furniture using recycled plastic gathered from land and oceans.
Yet as sustainability gets more and more popular, the traditional furniture industry still uses more than two billion trees annually to make its products; trees cut legally and illegally. Van de Sant started with the mission to stop deforestation and plastic pollution.
