The IKEA Global Sustainability Strategy
Sustainability is integrated into the IKEA business, with actions focused on healthy and sustainable living; climate, nature and circularity; and fair and equal.

Less waste with rechargeable batteries

The wood we use in IKEA products comes from responsible sources
More than 95% of the wood used in IKEA products is Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) certified or recycled wood. All wood must also meet our strict IWAY Forestry requirements.
