Sustainability

Made by Tait
For A Life Outside

 

We approach the creation and exchange of our Australian made furniture with great respect. This respect extends to our relationships – with each other, customers, colleagues and suppliers, First Nations communities and the natural environment. Our ESG framework was developed with sustainability consultants Hip V. Hype. It is structured around three pillars: Planet, People, Purpose, supported by a vision and action-based opportunity areas, goals and priorities, including targets where relevant.

OUR ESG STATEMENT

Circularity & Refurbishment

A Tait piece can be a piece for life with our custom refurbishment service. We purpose-design all our products to be refurbished so it can be part of your space for longer. From re-coating with a new powder coat colour, refinishing timber or refreshing upholstery, we can imbue your furniture with new life. Whether it needs functional repair, or an aesthetic ‘lift’, there are ways to extend the lifespan of every Tait piece.

By choosing refurbishment, waste is minimised – and you save the cost of replacing whole items. That’s a win-win in our books.

Care & Maintenance

We believe a piece of furniture is something of value. Serious time and care goes into its making – and just a bit of regular attention helps it last.

Our love and knowledge of materials extends to how to best look after them. And over our 30+ years of business, we’ve developed care and maintenance tips and strategies for every surface. We might be biased, but for us, spending regular time looking after beautiful furniture doesn’t feel like a chore. It becomes a ritual of care that only deepens our appreciation.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES

Product Stewardship

Our products are purpose-designed for A Life Outside. With high-performance, exterior-grade materials and exceptional quality embedded throughout the manufacturing process, they are built to last.

At some point though, a product may reach the end of its usefulness in your home or project. And when that happens, we will take back and steward the used product, and ensure it is properly dismantled and distributed for recycling.
