We won! Our shop on Upper Street has just won Islington’s green business of the year award. The award recognised the efforts we have made to source sustainable furniture and to inform customers of the environmental and ethical “footprint” of the pieces we offer. It might not be the Oscars, but we’re very proud!

Archant London November 2008. We were very proud to be selected from a group of eminent London businesses (under 200 employees) for this prestigious award. Many thanks to our customers and workshops who make environmental issues a priority.

Described as the Best of Britain's independent shops, this guide features our Islington showroom in its pages.

We were selected by Igloo, the world's first socially responsible property investor (as stated by the UN) to furnish their 'eco' show flat in this £60m regeneration project. The show flat is open to all visitors and our furniture features on its website bermondseysquare.co.uk

Lucy Siegle endorsed our efforts at raising awareness of the environmental concerns in our industry. In her 'Is it ok to buy wooden furniture' article she says, 'Some retailers such as Warren Evans and Benchmark have made laudable commitments to sustainable wood, but it is Chest of Drawers who set a new standard. It has developed its own thorough rating systems that considers the whole chain of custody and crucially makes products designed to last.'

Tree Hugger was impressed with our Furniture Rating Guide and passed along our details to their readers. Tree Hugger is a web based media outlet dedicated to driving sustainability mainstream. They are a one-stop shop for green news, solutions, and product information.

Cabinet maker covered our efforts at sustainability, saying other retailers should follow suit. "It simply empowers consumers to base their buying decisions on values that are important to them, whether it is price, aesthetics or the environment."
