Celebrate Earth Day with SLH Furniture: Sustainable Design for a Better Tomorrow

At SLH Furniture, Earth Day is more than just a date on the calendar — it's a daily commitment to crafting high-quality furniture with the future of our planet in mind. As a proudly Australian-owned brand, we believe beautiful design and sustainability should go hand in hand, which is why every piece we create is built to last, designed to minimise waste, and crafted using environmentally conscious materials.

Sustainable Materials. Thoughtful Design.

When you choose SLH Furniture, you're not only investing in timeless style — you're making a responsible choice for the environment. We take pride in sourcing sustainable and recycled materials wherever possible, ensuring that each product reduces its environmental footprint without sacrificing quality or comfort.

One of the standout examples of this commitment is our extensive use of certified reclaimed teak. Teak is renowned for its durability and weather resistance, making it a perfect choice for both indoor and outdoor furniture. By using reclaimed teak sourced from old buildings and government-regulated plantations, we reduce the need for deforestation and breathe new life into materials that would otherwise go to waste.

Our reclaimed teak is featured across a wide range of collections, including:

 HOUE, a Danish design house renowned for its sustainability-led approach. HOUE’s collections highlight how recycled materials can be transformed into sleek, modern outdoor furniture without sacrificing style or durability.

HOUE’s ReCLIPS collection uses slats made from 97% recycled Danish household plastic, paired with powder-coated aluminium frames. These chairs are not only robust and comfortable but also a brilliant example of design reducing waste.

• Karpenter, whose designs celebrate the beauty of natural wood while embracing modern sustainable practices. Karpenter furniture is crafted using FSC®-certified timbers and reclaimed solid wood, ensuring that every piece is sourced from forests that are sustainably managed or materials that are given a second life.

More Than Furniture — A Mindset

Sustainability at SLH isn’t just about materials. It’s a mindset that influences everything we do, from packaging to transport. Our shipping practices are designed to reduce single-use plastics, and we are continuously improving our processes to cut down on waste in every stage of the supply chain.

Design for Generations, Not Just Seasons

One of the simplest and most powerful ways to protect the environment is to invest in pieces designed to last a lifetime. At SLH, we embrace this philosophy through timeless aesthetics, high-quality craftsmanship, and durable materials that don’t need replacing every few years. This approach helps reduce landfill waste, energy consumption, and unnecessary manufacturing — all while allowing you to enjoy a beautiful, long-lasting living environment.
