Wherever you see the Climate Neutral Certified label, it means the company is accountable for its greenhouse gas emissions. To earn the label, a company must annually measure cradle-to-customer emissions, implement specific action plans to reduce emissions, and invest in high quality, verified carbon credits.
The certification requirements are detailed in the rigorous, peer-reviewed Climate Neutral Certified Standard. Each company’s application is reviewed for compliance by Change Climate’s certification team.

Our history with sustainability began with design and committing to a made to order model. I knew we couldn't be sustainable if we insisted on trend driven designs and if we overproduced. Those two concepts have served as the backbone of our sustainability work and it has inspired our materials sourcing and the numerous color options and customizations we are now known for. Certification helps us clarify and redefine the idea that an abundance of choice and options is actually sustainable in this model.
