About - Commitment to Sustainability

Commitment
to Sustainability

Until recently, many sustainability strategies and commitments have focused on environmental issues.

The combination of Covid-19, intensifying environmental and social issues and greater public awareness have however accelerated their evolution and the need to embrace broader issues.

Every activity at JPA Workspaces is underpinned by NetZero Leadership and the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Sustainable development isn’t a new issue, we’re just now more aware of it.

Commitment to Reducing Carbon

Reducing waste, reduces carbon. JPA help clients buying better to use for longer, quality will out. We can also supply to meet BREEAM, LEED, Ska and WELL Building criteria to promote ethical sourcing, a reduced carbon footprint and healthier working environments.

Our in-house teams work with clients to keep their new furniture in good working life for longer, reducing operational carbon, waste and spend. We also maintain existing legacy furniture, compounding the savings

Project DODO maximise Clients’ furniture through repairing, refreshing, re-configuring, re-using, community rehoming, and end of life recycling as a last resort.

Nothing is wasted and nothing goes to landfill.

Frequently asked questions

Do you deliver and install my furniture?

JPA deliver and fully install all furniture supplied, with our very own teams of fitters in easily recognisable red liveried vehicles. Our fitters are fully trained (and DBS checked for peace of mind) and will deliver and assemble your new furniture as part of the job, leaving it ready for you to use straight away. We’ll show you how it works just in case and then also remove any packaging materials for recycling, with nothing going to landfill.

Can you help me with planning my space?

Our design team can help you plan and furnish all types and sizes of workspace including fixed desks, hot desks, breakout and collaborative spaces, chill and café spaces, meeting and mixing spaces. We help you make the most of your space, dealing with all legislative and regulatory issues so you don’t have to, whilst creating effective, engaging areas for your teams to work, rest and play.

What if I need help after my furniture has been delivered?

Because we only sell products from robust, tried and tested manufacturers, we underwrite all factory warranties free of charge. We’re happy to work with your cleaning and maintenance teams to show them how to get the best from your furniture, and also to give product training and refresher training as needed. If hot desking means that someone else keeps adjusting your chair, you need to know how to re-set it to make it work for you and get comfy. We’re here to before, during and after furniture installation.

What do I do with my old furniture?

The good news is that JPA have an award-winning furniture collection, re-use and recycling programme already in place. We can discuss options for removal of your old furniture when planning your new furniture, but can also collect your unwanted furniture as a stand alone service. Either way, we guarantee that none of your unwanted furniture goes to landfill. Simply get in touch for more details.
JPA are fully operational right now – we are quoting, taking orders, delivering and installing!

My office space is going to have to change after covid – can you help with planning?

Our teams are helping all types of organisations plan for safe return to work including layout changes, safety screens, vaccination pods and creating extra working spaces.

I need a chair for my home, can you supply it?

We have a homeworking chair and furniture programme in place with 5 day delivery – please ask for more details

How can my office be more sustainable?

Better sustainability can be achieved by all organisations of all sizes. Firstly we can help by keeping the furniture you already have in use for longer, by repairing, refreshing and reupholstering it – we call this PROJECT DODO, preventing your old furniture from becoming extinct! Not only does this prevent furniture landfill, but it’s also a cheaper option than buying new and using more resources. We can also reconfigure your furniture, re-arranging it into different set-ups to suit changing workflow and business requirements

How do I know where my furniture comes from?

The furniture we supply is from ethical and sustainable sources – with materials from managed and renewable sources. Standard fabrics carry the EcoLabel. Our supply chain is checked against stringent criteria to also make sure that product manufacturers are actively promoting social welfare both internally and down their own supply chains. You can rely on JPA for quality, sustainability and long-term value.

What is PROJECT DODO?

JPA’s Project Dodo is our own award-winning furniture maximisation programme! We work with you to help your furniture last longer before you buy new, through repairs, refresh, reupholstery, reconfiguration or off-site relocation – there’s no excuse for single use! If you really can’t use it, we’ll simply collect it and try and rehome it in the community or recycle it for materials recovery. Either way, we make it easy for your organisation to reduce furniture waste and eliminate furniture landfill.

Do I have to dispose of the packaging?

No, the good news is that after unwrapping and assembling your furniture ready for use, we collect all the packaging and take it back to our warehouse for re-use or recycling.

Can you help me re-locate my office space?

We can dismantle, pack and move organisations of all types

Can you repair furniture?

We can certainly come out to have a look to see if we can repair existing furniture, or you can send us an image. We can then advise whether repairs would be cost effective and worth the investment.

‘Please could you pass on my many many thanks to your team who carried out a very exhausting task here today at Magdalen I could not have got through the day without them!

Their commitment, loyalty, patience and work ethic is truly outstanding and I am so very grateful to them for all that they did (plenty of sweating but thankfully no tears).

A quick note to say that everything went to plan and the new furniture is stunning! The guys did a sterling job and I am very pleased! This was the biggest, costliest order I have ever made and it is worth it!

Congratulations on the 100 Chair Challenge - a life-saver for local charities with limited resources and an imaginative idea.

St Albans & District Talking Newspaper

I thought the scheme a great idea, not only to allow people to dispose of old chairs, but then to have them renovated and recycled really helps the environment, and the end users.
