Thuma makes furniture with a pleasing minimalist design. And their focus on material durability and circularity is appealing. Our research gave us some indication that there is a desire to credibly pursue ingredient safety and sustainability. But when it came down to finding the kind of substantiation and information we need to score our evaluation, we often came up empty handed. Given the products and claims, we really hope to see more substance from the company when it comes to issues like climate, biodiversity, and social impacts in the future.

Using circular design thinking

We appreciate that this company appears to be integrating more circular approaches to designing and making products and packaging to help reduce environmental impacts

Using recycled raw materials

Using recycled materials (e.g. aluminum, glass, plastic) for products or packaging often means lower environmental impacts across the lifecycle than virgin raw materials

Opportunities for Improvement

Increasing use of lower-impact raw materials

We would like to see this company increase their use of certified (e.g. USDA Organic) raw materials and ingredients

Launching climate protection efforts

We would like to see this company take credible actions to measure, reduce, and report on their greenhouse gas emissions

Solidifying biodiversity protection efforts

We appreciate that the company donates to organizations that are helping to protect or restore impacted ecosystems but we think the company should internalize those efforts by clearly articulating a biodiversity policy and goal
