BACK TO SCHOOL: Target’s Economical Eco Furniture

by , 09/03/07

Target Eco-Friendly Flatpak Furniture Line, FSC Certified Wood,

It’s that time of year again, and we know lots of you are headed back to school — many moving into dorm rooms and new apartments. For many of you that means trips to IKEA to find cheap furniture, but often cheap furniture comes with a downside: formaldehyde-filled plywood that off-gases in your space and can cause indoor air pollution. Fortunately our favorite cheap-chic retailer Target has come to the rescue with a new line of economical furniture that is cute, eco-friendly and flat-packed for easy transport.

    I’m really disappointed in this pointed slight against Ikea. Yes, Ikea does use plywood in their furniture, but Ikea also adheres to higher off-gassing standards than most US companies (I believe it’s the German E1 standard). Check your facts before you slam a retailer who is actually trying to do well by their customers!

  3. Hi,

    I am a big fan of the custom furniture on your site.

    I’m an environmental activist and the founder of savephoenix.org. I am currently trying to promote my new article on green furniture design, ww.modernfurniture.org. I’m writing to see if you would post a link from your page to modernfurniture.org – if so, I’ll write a blurb on my article about how you are a green friendly furniture company.

    Thanks!!

    Sincerely,
    Sarah
