Carbon Savings Calculator

How big is my furniture carbon footprint? Why does it even matter?

Do you know how much carbon is emitted to make a piece of furniture?

Did you know wood is a carbon store? It absorbs CO2 from the atmosphere.

When unwanted wooden is furniture is incinerated at landfill to make way for new – the carbon store is lost and CO2 once stored is released.

Use this calculator to discover how much carbon can be saved when you shop pre-loved or upcycled furniture.

Shopping pre-loved reduces the deforestation and bio-diversity loss caused by the resources used to create new furniture.

How do I use the carbon savings calculator?

  • Input the quantity of furniture by the furniture type
  • Click the "Calculate CO2 saved" button to calculate the amount of carbon emissions avoided by shopping pre-loved instead of new.
