We develop and produce furniture in a good quality design. We provide furniture for use in offices, conferences, cafés, hotels, institutions and within the care sector.

5 3. Our approach on Global Compact Through our core value chain we strive to build a growing positive impact on society. This is done by producing and distributing high quality furniture with high durability, and thus less negative impact on the environment. We believe that our furniture due to better comfort, less toxic emissions and better ergonomic design in schools and other teaching facilities will create a better learning environment in working environments will create higher output and less sick leaves in the care sector will support the effect of the medical treatment in general will increase the quality of life of the users Social responsibility policy International Furniture A/S strives to be a trustworthy and socially responsible company that aims to contribute to improve quality of life and living standard for workers here and in the supply chain. International Furniture A/S strives to promote sustainable development by considering the conditions, which influence peopleʼs lives when making decisions. This implies that we will work active within the four main areas in the UN Global Compact Initiative, which we joined in We will: Support international human rights and basic labour standards and include social aspects in business decisions, where we find it relevant. Implement a diversity effort not to discriminate due to sex, gender, race, religion, nationality etc. Ensure a safe and sound working environment for our employees. Our working environment initiatives should be of a preventive nature to prevent potential work-related injuries. Implement a set of ethic rules - in our organization and in our supply chain. Our is similar to the international recognized BSCI. Our will provide workers with minimum rules within working time and payments, the rights to unionize, abolishing discrimination and child labour. Environment Policy International Furniture A/S is committed to a continuous improvement of our environmental performance and the prevention of environmental pollution.
