Our Sustainability Initiatives
How We make an impact
For Front Group, sustainability is an important part of everything we do. We carefully select our suppliers and collaborate with environmental organizations and companies to help make a difference together. We have a genuine interest in environmental issues, and by raising awareness and encouraging more conscious purchasing decisions as well as proper product care, we believe we can contribute to meaningful progress.
FRONT OF SWEDEN
One Tree Planted
Why One Tree Planted?
A well-established organization with extensive experience and global impact. For every order at Front of Sweden, we plant a tree. Reforestation benefits the environment by restoring or accelerating the natural regrowth of healthy forest ecosystems in areas that have been damaged or deforested.
One Tree Planted is a global organization that collaborates with a range of partners and initiatives, including Terrafund for AFR100 – a partner of the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration – as well as the World Resources Institute, Global Mangrove Alliance, the Jane Goodall Institute, and the U.S. Forest Service. Through their extensive work and broad network, they enable large-scale, tangible impact, which is why we have chosen to work with them.
Through our partnership with One Tree Planted, and with the support of our customers and followers, we have helped plant hundreds of trees, restore degraded landscapes, rebuild habitats, and support sustainable socio-economic development around the world.

CleanSea
The ocean and the Swedish west coast are close to us – both geographically and at heart. That’s why we want to take action to protect the environment we care about and contribute in a concrete, hands-on way in our local area. For every 10 new newsletter subscribers at Tibergs Möbler, we help remove 1 kg of plastic.
why CleanSea?
Every hour, more than five bathtubs of plastic wash up on Sweden’s west coast—plastic that threatens wildlife, damages nature, and remains in ecosystems for decades. CleanSea is an organization taking concrete action to address this. They actively remove waste from the ocean, coastline, and seabed—everything from abandoned fishing gear to small plastic fragments that can be fatal to birds and marine mammals.
We have chosen to partner with CleanSea because they share our view on sustainability—it’s not about big words, but real action. Removing just 100 grams of plastic can save a seabird; half a kilo can save a seal. By supporting CleanSea, we contribute to meaningful change—not only for the environment today, but for future generations.
Manufacturing & Quality
As we do not have our own production but act as a retailer of furniture and interior products, it is important for us to carefully select suppliers who offer high quality for long product lifespans, have well-developed and consistent policies regarding production and environmental responsibility, and manufacture as locally as possible. Many of our key suppliers work actively and continuously to choose sustainable and environmentally friendly materials, as well as to improve their production processes to reduce environmental impact. In addition, we offer one of the market’s widest ranges of furniture care products, making it easier to maintain and extend the life of your furniture.
Recycling
We strive to reuse packaging materials as much as possible. When they are fully used, both paper and plastic are sent to REMONDIS for recycling. REMONDIS is a leading company in recycling, environmental services, and water management. With a strong focus on sustainable development, they work daily to reduce climate impact, promote efficient resource use, and manage environmental responsibility.
Deliveries
We deliver using our own vehicles in and around Gothenburg, and for longer distances we work with DHL, PostNord, and LGT Logistics. As a leading global logistics provider, DHL is a frontrunner in sustainable and climate-compensated transport solutions and continuously works to reduce the environmental impact of its operations. PostNord has been ranked the world’s top company for sustainability according to the EcoVadis rating. LGT Logistics actively works towards sustainable development and supports the UN Global Compact and its ten principles on human rights, labor, and the environment.
