UMAGE is a Danish word meaning ‘making an effort’, and that’s what we
want to do every day. UMAGE is where beautiful Danish design meets af-
fordability, high-quality material, and a genuine care for the environment.
At UMAGE, we combine aesthetics, simplicity and functionality and
infuse it with thoughtful craftmanship and environmental care. The result
is exquisite designs with a sustainable edge. Our designs are flat-packed
to optimize global logistics and make our designs more accessible and
affordable. In the process, we minimize the carbon footprint on our planet
and maximise our ethical commitment to environmental responsibility.

“If we treat every living
creature with kindness and
respect, nature will prevail
– as will UMAGE!”
Sustainability efforts
We acknowledge that selling furniture and light-
ing can never be 100% sustainable, but we want
to make an extra effort for the environment.
We are dedicated to being sensible front-
runners on environmental responsibility. If
we provide timeless, lasting, and functional
quality designs, we know nature will prevail,
as will UMAGE.
“We are constantly improving our designs
and trying to do even better for the environ-
ment, with new sustainable materials, greater
functionality and by making our flat-packed
products even smaller, to care for you and
the planet.”
Reforestation
UMAGE collaborates with the NGO One Tree
Planted, so every time a design made from
wood is sold, we plant a tree. Trees help clean
the air we breathe, filter the water we drink
and provide habitat to over 80% of the world’s
terrestrial biodiversity. Forests provide jobs to
over 1.6 billion people, absorb harmful car-
bon from the atmosphere, and are key ingre-
dients in 25% of all medicines. Fortunately,
a mature tree can absorb an average of 22lbs
of carbon dioxide per year, making cities a
healthier, safer place to live.
We planted 20.093 trees in 2021, based on
your love for UMAGE – so THANK YOU!
Multifunctional and flexible
Why have a table lamp or a side table and not
include a USB or wireless charger as well?
Why not make room for storage where the
space is vacant anyway? UMAGE not only
answers these questions but makes it happen.
One of the key aspects of the furniture and
lighting designs at UMAGE is multiple func-
tions and flexibility. Designing with more
than one function in mind is a sustainable
mindset as it reduces the number of products
you need to buy to get a complete setting for
your space.
Compact packaging
We have replaced all foam and plastic in
our packaging with eco-friendly materials
to minimise plastic waste when purchasing
an UMAGE design. So, our designs are not
only flat-packed to optimise the global logis-
tics and the environmental footprint, but we
also make sure that you don't need to throw
away tons of packaging material and that the
packaging you’re left with can be recycled
and used for something new.
Replaceable and recyclable
Creating long-lasting designs is an essential
part of the UMAGE brand. To extend the life
of the design, most parts of the furniture and
lamps at UMAGE are replaceable. If a part
breaks or gets worn out, you don’t have to
go out and replace a complete piece of fur-
niture or lamp – you can simply replace the
single parts.
When your UMAGE design has lived a full
life, it can be separated into key elements
for recycling.

REC YCLED
TE X TILE
100% recycled textiles
The Horizons textiles are recycled from plastic waste
and reused for a new purpose in the design of com-
fortable chairs and cute cabinets at UMAGE. The tex-
tiles are certified with Global Recycled Standard and
STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®. The recycled textile
is available for our The Reader, A Conversation Piece,
Time Flies, Treasures, Audacious, Curious and Lounge
Around collections from UMAGE.
Interchangeable elements
As time changes, the designs can change accordingly.
Two years have passed, and suddenly you want another
colour on your lounge chair, then simply interchange
upholstery in a few minutes. Same thing with our din-
ing chairs, cabinets, and other responsible designs. This
means you can add new life to the design and your
interior without buying an entirely new furniture piece,
saving the world's resources.
“The new textile is called
Horizons – reminding us that
a brighter future is in sight,
if we are all making that
extra effort for the planet.”
Sustainability efforts
Responsible Down Standard
At UMAGE, we ensure that all goose feathers used for
our Eos feather lamp collection are 100% sustainably
sourced from farmland to end-consumer. All feathers
are licensed with an RDS certification, ensuring the
well-being of animals in our production.
Nordic Swan Ecolabel
The Dunes collection from Sørensen Leather is a part
of our permanent upholstery collection for the UMAGE
lounge chairs and ottomans. The Dunes collection has
received the Nordic Swan Ecolabel: A highly respect-
ed certification verifying that it meets their rigorous
requirements regarding the environment, energy use
and resources.
