Chemical management policy
Our customers want to know what’s in our products, and we’re willing to share. For more than two decades, we’ve collected detailed information on the chemicals and materials in our products. We work deep within our supply chain, product development, and manufacturing processes to clean up problematic materials, use safer alternatives, and aim for cleaner chemistry. We do so because we’re committed to the quality and safety of our products, and protecting the wellbeing of our employees, suppliers, and customers.
At MillerKnoll, we not only work to meet all regulatory compliance standards for products, we also endeavor to meet our customers’ needs for healthy, sustainable products and spaces. To that end, we are focused on removing chemicals of concern from our products and avoiding their use in our new products as much as possible. Our research has led us to prioritize the following groups of chemicals which are contained in our MillerKnoll Restricted List of Chemicals:
Antimicrobials
Flame Retardants
Heavy Metals & Heavy Metal Compounds
Organic Solvents: Formaldehyde, Dimethyl Formamide (DMF), and Methylene Chloride
Organotins
Ortho-phthalates
Per- and Poly-Fluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS)
PVC
By holding ourselves to stringent environmental requirements, making products that meet the most rigorous certifications, and being radically transparent with massive amounts of environmental data, we help our customers achieve their own goals, promote health and well-being, and deliver the best possible products.
