IKEA has big ambitions. It is committed to doing its part to tackle climate change, unsustainable consumption, and inequality. The three major focus areas are Healthy & sustainable living, Climate action & circularity and Fair & equal.
Healthy & sustainable living
IKEA will inspire and enable people to move towards healthy and sustainable lifestyles, by making them a desirable choice that is affordable, attractive, and accessible for as many people as possible.
The new SOLHETTA LED bulbs are much more energy efficient - and affordable - than previous IKEA LED bulbs.
100% renewable electricity in IKEA factories
During FY21 IKEA reached 100% renewable electricity for all IKEA-operated factories, packaging and distribution units globally.
55.8% renewable materials
Of the materials we sourced in 2021, 55.8% were renewable and 17.3% were recycled.
Less waste with rechargeable batteries
IKEA no longer sells non-rechargeable alkaline batteries and has replaced them with LADDA rechargeable batteries. This helps customers to significantly reduce waste and save money in the long run.
97,8% of the wood used for IKEA products is either Forest Stewardship Council®-certified (FSC®) or recycled.
The planet is our only home and needs us now more than ever. But home has always been what we make it. And at IKEA, we’re determined to make healthy and sustainable living attractive, affordable and accessible for as many people as possible.
