Need to replace thousands of office chairs? Or are some of your desks simply starting to look a little worn? Instead of buying new furniture, you can clean, maintain, and repair what you already have. This can save you money and reduce your carbon footprint.
Carpets, furniture, and upholstery are used every day, and over time, they start to show signs of wear. Still, maintenance often happens only when something is already worn or no longer works properly. As a result, furniture and interiors are often replaced sooner than necessary.
With our Life Cycle Extension (LCE) service, you get an overview of your existing furniture and interiors and a plan for how and when to maintain them. This helps you extend their lifespan, reduce the need to buy new furniture, and get more out of what you already have.
3 reasons to choose Life Cycle Extension
1. Reduced carbon footprint
By extending the life of your furniture and materials, you reduce your carbon footprint and the need to buy new furniture. Regular cleaning and maintenance also keep your interiors looking good and working well for longer. With LCE, you can document your efforts to reduce your company’s carbon footprint and include the results in your ESG work and reporting.
2. Better indoor air quality and well-being
Regular cleaning and maintenance help create a cleaner and more comfortable indoor environment. This is especially important in shared workspaces, where many people use the same furniture. Cleaning also reduces dust, pollen, and other particles in fabrics and upholstery.
3. Less need to buy new furniture
Regular maintenance can extend the life of your furniture and reduce the need for new purchases. It also gives you a better overview of costs, makes facility management easier to plan, and saves time in day-to-day operations.
4 product areas in one solution
We focus on the furniture and interiors that are used the most every day. This is where wear and tear happens, and where we can extend their lifespan.
The solution covers four product areas:
1. Interior textile cleaning
Effective stain treatment, deep cleaning of carpets and furniture, and washing and ultrasonic cleaning of curtains and blinds.
2. Chair maintenance check
Inspection and adjustment of moving parts, and identification of any need for repairs or reupholstery.
3. Technical maintenance of lockers and pods
Inspection of doors, hinges, locking mechanisms, electrical functions, ventilation, lighting, and sound insulation, among other components.
4. Tabletop cleaning and care
Cleaning, care, and polishing of linoleum tabletops, as well as cleaning and degreasing of laminate tabletops.
You get a clear overview and a plan
We start by getting an overview of your existing furniture and interiors. We count and measure everything and look at what you have, where it is, and how it is used.
Based on this, we create a maintenance plan that also shows what it means for your costs and CO₂ emissions.
The plan follows an annual schedule, with regular maintenance carried out at planned intervals throughout the year.
