As a proud retailer of Sachsenküchen, a manufacturer renowned for its dedication to environmentally conscious production, we share a deep-rooted commitment to sustainability. From the sourcing of raw materials to the way our kitchens are crafted and installed, we take careful steps to minimise our environmental footprint while delivering beautiful, enduring spaces for your home!

Why Sustainability Matters in Kitchen Design

Kitchens are the heart of the home, often the most frequently used space where families cook, eat, socialise, and make memories. Because they are so central to everyday life, kitchens are also one of the most resource-intensive parts of a house, from materials used in cabinetry and worktops, to energy consumption and waste created during renovation.

Designing sustainably means thinking long term. This includes choosing high-quality materials that last, using eco-friendly manufacturing processes, and ensuring that waste is reduced throughout the kitchen’s lifecycle. At Haus12, we believe that the kitchens we offer should not just meet our customers’ expectations, but also reflect a shared commitment to protecting the planet.

Our Partnership with Sachsenküchen

One of the ways we honour this commitment is through our partnership with Sachsenküchen, a German kitchen manufacturer with over a century of craftsmanship and a modern approach rooted in sustainability. Here are some of the ways Sachsenküchen leads the way in sustainable kitchen manufacturing:

1. Sustainably Sourced Materials

Sachsenküchen takes great care to use wood and wood-based materials that are responsibly harvested. All raw wood materials are sourced from PEFC- and FSC-certified forests, ensuring that their production supports responsible forestry and biodiversity.

2. Environmentally Friendly Production

Manufacturing at Sachsenküchen is designed to be as low-impact as possible. The company invests in modern, energy-efficient machinery and precision engineering to reduce waste and minimise energy consumption. Production processes are continually evaluated and improved to lower emissions and optimise resource usage.

3. Minimal Waste and Smart Packaging

Sachsenküchen prioritises waste reduction at every stage of production. Advanced manufacturing techniques ensure that raw materials are used efficiently, and the company works to keep packaging materials to a minimum. Where packaging is essential, they take care to use recyclable and reusable materials.

4. Long-Lasting Design

Durability is a crucial part of sustainable design. Sachsenküchen kitchens are built to withstand the test of time, both in terms of style and structure. High-quality finishes, precision construction, and modular flexibility ensure that your kitchen stays relevant and functional for decades to come.

5. Certified Sustainability

Sachsenküchen holds several certifications that reflect its commitment to sustainability, including ISO 14001 (Environmental Management), PEFC, and FSC certification. These awards are active frameworks that guide constant improvement in sustainability and environmental awareness.
