Redefining Furniture with Sustainability and Transparency

At Slow, we are passionate about creating exceptional quality sofas while embracing sustainable manufacturing practices, promoting radical transparency, and educating consumers about the unsustainability of conventional sofa manufacturing. Our mission is to reduce our impact on the environment, support local communities, and redefine the way we think about furniture consumption. Join us as we delve into the heart of what it means to design with purpose, educate for change, and make a positive difference in the world. 

Designing Furniture to Last Generations 

Slow was born amidst the breathtaking Yorkshire Dales, inspiring us to go beyond profit and consider the long-term impact of our choices. We design durable, timeless furniture using craftsmanship and the finest materials to withstand the test of time.

Exceptional Quality

At Slow, quality is at the core of everything we do. Our sofas are constructed with certified beech wood from responsibly managed forests, supporting biodiversity and sustainability. We prioritise your health by using flame-retardant-free fabrics and avoiding foam in our production.

Sustainable Manufacturing

Nurturing staff, supporting local makers, and contributing to re-wilding schemes are key to our green approach. Through zero-waste manufacturing and sustainably sourced materials, we minimise our carbon footprint and support the local economy.

Radical Transparency

We value transparency and have trustworthy partnerships with suppliers who share our ethical values. We believe in providing openness about our practices, allowing you to make informed choices aligned with your values.

Educating for Change

Our goal is to shed light on unsustainable practices in the sofa industry. Conventional manufacturing involves harmful chemicals and materials that harm our health and the environment. Our blog provides insights into healthier alternatives and sustainable solutions.
