We have calculated our total carbon footprint by looking at the impact from our facilities, shippers and suppliers. By 2019, with help from programs we are implementing to offset carbon in various parts of the world, Humanscale's carbon handprint will be larger than our footprint.
A footprint is the measure of negative impact on the Earth's ecosystems. Our Life-Cycle Assessment calculates the amount of water, energy and carbon used across our supply chain: from extraction of resources to processing, manufacturing, assembly, and shipping.
A handprint is the measure of positive impacts on the environment. It is calculated from improvements in our materials, processes and operations, or from new activities and initiatives we implement to make a positive contribution.
By 2019, Humanscale will save more energy than is used across our supply chain for the production of Diffrient Smart chairs and Float tables.

The majority of waste from Humanscale's production facilities' is made of the following types:
Most components we receive packaged in cardboard boxes, which are collected and then recycled.
Organic waste comes from employee lunches. We compost a portion of organic waste using a Garden Tower, and are setting up a garden and compost system to handle the remainder.
Metal can be from aluminum cans from employee lunches, or from rejected product. All metal is separated and recycled.
Our suppliers ship components on wood shipping pallets. We reuse all pallets in good condition. Broken pallets are sent to a waste-to-energy facility.
Plastic wrap and plastic foam are used by our suppliers to package our components. It's separated, baled and recycled
The manufacturer must strive to reduce or eliminate the production of waste during the manufacturing process, and final product packaging, in order to conserve natural resources and to find ways to use waste in a closed loop cycle.
The product must be designed so that its durability, warranty and useful lifespan have a direct relationship to its environmental impact and embodied energy.
The product must either be:
Free of any Red List chemicals and be completely compostable within five years.
