valoppe
Sustainable by design.
Valoppe was born from a great love for design, interior design and the desire to add something new to it. However, our work and our products should never be at the expense of nature. In fact, proving that it is possible to make high-end furniture of the highest quality with respect for our environment is an important part of our mission and one of Valoppe's core values.
We are happy to explain how we deal with responsible entrepreneurship, how we even strengthen nature, but also where we can still improve.
Our current efforts.
We are planting trees
With every purchase of a wooden furniture we donate a tree and give it to you and nature. In this way we let nature grow instead of burdening it.
All our wood is FSC-certified
The wood we use for our furniture always comes from forests that are managed sustainably, under the supervision of the Forest Stewardship Council.
Your furniture is made locally by craftsmen
We produce your furniture in The Netherlands. Producing close to our largest market means we minimise transport of materials and furniture.
Solid wood
We use solid wood as much as possible, because it's durable and easy to recycle, unlike some processed types of wood.
Our furniture is expensive
Fast-furniture with cheap, replaceable furniture has a major impact on our environment. We consciously choose to create durable, costly and high-quality furniture to promote longevity and residual value.
Our office runs on 100% renewable energy
Our office only uses 100% renewable energy.
Specially made for you
Valoppe does not produce stock that needs to be transported and stored. Each piece of furniture is made especially for its new owner.
Valoppe makes your garden bloom
When your furniture is delivered, you will receive a thank you card with additional information about your purchase. The card and envelope are made of seed paper with flower seeds. Plant them in your garden and watch your local nature flourish through your purchase.
Your privacy is safe with us

What we focus on
The United Nations has established 17 Sustainable Development Goals.Valoppe wants to do more than its bit to contribute to these goals and has the ambition to become one of the brands that change and transform the industry through sustainable business practices. We ensure decent wages and working conditions for our employees and suppliers, sustainable production and are determined to combat overconsumption and waste. In addition, we try to give back to nature more than we use with every piece of furniture.
What we can improve on
Transportation
Emails
The transport of raw materials and our furniture is not yet entirely powered by renewable energy. We try to influence the innovative power and sustainability of our transport partners, but we can still do beter here.
Sending emails to keep you informed of all the news in the world of Valoppe requires energy. The partners we work with to bring you this news cannot yet guarantee that they only use renewable energy. We can improve on this.
