The environment at the moment is a fragile one. Persistent deforestation for the wood needed to make furniture amongst other things has led to increased climate change, global warming, emission of greenhouse gas, erosion, and flooding concerns.
It is estimated that in less than a decade, the deforestation of world’s tropical rainforests has exceeded a land area of more than 385 million acres, which is approximately thrice the size of France.
Deforestation has adversely affected the ecosystem in these tropical rainforests, with the premature destruction of many plants while wild animals are indiscriminately killed or displaced from their natural habitat.
Trees from logging campaigns get sent to sawmills where they are cut, turned into furniture and transported to warehouses. This process also increases the level carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. When the furniture produced gets old, they are often disposed of and sent to landfills where even more carbon dioxide as well as methane is released into the environment as the furniture decomposes. However, with reupholstery, less emphasis is placed on logging and the production of new furniture.
With reupholstery, old furniture is refurbished, brought back to their original lustre or made even better. Reupholstery requires little or no natural resources which means that the environment is spared the harshness of deforestation and all the associated problems attributed to it.
In addition, reupholstery relies on little or no production activity or transportation which further reduces the amount of carbon dioxide and other harmful gases like methane emitted into the atmosphere.
Reupholstery also involves the use of materials that are eco-friendly and recyclable in nature which greatly helps the environment.
