Lagom Hem joins 1% for the Planet: a step closer to sustainable living

At Lagom Hem, sustainability isn’t just a buzzword – it’s part of our DNA. That’s why we’re proud to announce that we’ve officially become a 1% for the Planet member. This marks a significant step forward in our mission to help people furnish their homes beautifully, responsibly, and with purpose.

what is 1% for the Planet?

1% for the Planet is a global organization that exists to ensure our planet and future generations thrive. They inspire businesses to support environmental partners through membership and everyday actions. They make environmental giving easy and effective through partnership advising, impact storytelling and third-party certification.

Started in 2002 by Yvon Chouinard, founder of Patagonia, and Craig Mathews, founder of Blue Ribbon Flies, their members have given hundreds of millions of dollars to their approved environmental partners to date.

Today, 1% for the Planet’s global network consists of thousands of businesses and environmental partners working toward a better future for all.

why it matters to Lagom Hem

Lagom Hem was founded on the belief that stylish, functional homes shouldn’t come at the cost of the Earth. Our second-hand, imperfect, and returned furniture marketplace was designed to reduce waste and extend the lifecycle of beautiful pieces that deserve a second chance.

Joining 1% for the Planet is a natural extension of our commitment to:

• Promoting circular living and conscious consumption

• Minimising environmental impact within the home and interiors space

• Supporting global efforts in reforestation, sustainability, and clean energy

We want to do more than just reduce harm – we want to actively contribute to a better future.

what this means for our community

When you shop with Lagom Hem, you’re doing more than just finding great furniture – you’re supporting a mission-driven business that’s giving back to the Earth. Every purchase contributes to vetted environmental organisations working on critical issues affecting our planet.

We believe that by making sustainability more accessible, more beautiful, and more human, we can reshape how people furnish their spaces – and how they think about their impact on the world.

join us on the journey

As we grow, our commitment to people and planet will continue to guide our path. Becoming a 1% for the Planet member is just the beginning. We’re excited to share more of our sustainability initiatives, from carbon reduction strategies to our future plans for product reuse and repair.

We’re always learning, evolving, and listening – and we want you to be part of that journey.

Let’s create a world where every home feels good, looks good, and does good.

The way we buy and dispose of furniture is changing. More consumers are recognising the environmental impact of mass furniture production and turning to circular economy solutions like second-hand shopping and furniture restoration.

At Lagom Hem, we’re committed to reshaping the industry by making sustainable furniture accessible and affordable. By choosing returned, second-hand, and upcycled pieces, you’re not just decorating your home – you’re making a conscious decision to protect the planet.
