Sustainability

We use our materials carefully and make the most efficient use of them. This helps us minimise waste. We also sort our waste, including paint residues, cardboard, MDF and other sheet materials. We generate our own sustainable electricity using our solar panels.

This electric van complements our larger van. We can use it to easily deliver small items of furniture and carry out service jobs. From delivery to installation and after-sales service, we’re always there for our customers.

Perhaps you have already seen it... It was high time to renew and make our premises more sustainable. The entire roof of our showroom has been given an extra layer of insulation and new plates. The anthracite-coloured roof gives the building a whole new look and feel! 

Leidschendam June 27, 2023- Furniture maker De Stoof is in the spotlight of the AD Weekend Magazine. Brother and sister, Wouter and Lotte Tielemans, are committed to sustainability in their family business. With Wood Loop, an initiative that reuses wood remnants, they save kilometres and reduce CO2 emissions.From coffee tables to built-in furniture, De Stoof makes custom-made furniture. A lot of wood is lost during the production process. Wood Loop collects wood remnants to make new boards, reducing 95,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions.Wouter and Lotte participate in the Wood Loop pilot project. Waste wood is collected and retrieved by Baars & Bloemhoff. The reuse saves costs and reduces CO2 emissions. The return trip is combined with new deliveries, saving even more CO2.De Stoof is proud of the 12,000 kilos of CO2 savings and the positive impact on the environment. Visit their showroom and discover custom-made furniture with a sustainable touch.

We have also taken a first step towards sustainability. We can therefore wholeheartedly recommend the free energy scan of the Municipality of Leidschendam-Voorburg. For example, we have already placed a wall in our showroom to insulate better (www.energiekeregio.nl/leidschendam-voorburg)

Just over a year ago, we were featured in ‘Het Krantje’ in connection with the study into the installation of solar panels. There are now 174 panels on the roof, and another lovely article has been written. We had to wait a long time for the spring sunshine, but we’re seeing the first returns! Read the full article here.
