WE LOVE WOOD
Wood is a living, lasting and
everchanging material.
And it is the core of everything we do.
We believe balance is key.
And we believe in protecting and respecting Nature and the forests that bring life to our furniture.
Natural resources
Skovby furniture is made from natural materials, selected with consideration and respect for Nature, environment and people.
Wood is one of the most sustainable and lasting resources that exists. Sustainable forests in Europe and North America are increasing. Wood that we obtain from such forests is replaced, which supports preservation of ecosystem diversity.
The majority of our products are built from more than 90% wooden materials. Wood is a natural material that absorbs and binds CO2. In total, the timber delivered to Skovby each year binds more than 5.000 tons of CO2.
Waste never looked so good!
The idea and design for stool #840 sprang from pieces of leftover wood.
Pieces cut from round and elliptical shaped tables are brought together to create a stackable and sustainable stool made entirely from leftover pieces from the production.
Three joint pieces give the seat a dynamic and interesting pattern. Combined with the edgy legs the result is a unique, sculptural look.
Long-lasting materials and design
1988: The table was originally called DC06.
Under the tabletop is a turntable that splits the tabletop in three, revealing hidden extension leaves that easily pop up and unfold.
1996: The table gets a makeover in form of a new appearance and name - #32. The unique, patented extension system stays the same.
2017: A new conical shaped base of six joint parts is introduced. The result is a more modern and timeless look, and the new version is named #33.
