At Cane-line social responsibility and care for the environment are important parts of our DNA and core value. We particularly support the desire to create a responsible business/production that minimizes our societal and environmental impact.
As a manufacturer of furniture, we believe our greatest impact come from addressing UN Sustainable Development goals no. 8 and 12. To us, the SDGs make us even more motivated to work towards a more responsible business.

SDG No. 8 is about creating decent jobs and sustainable economic growth. To achieve this, we work to create decent jobs with good conditions, both in Denmark and at our production facility in Indonesia. In the local community of Rynkeby, Denmark, where our head office is located, we focus on creating jobs, particularly for young people. Our production facility in Indonesia is particularly focused on creating decent jobs with good working conditions.
SDG No. 12 seeks to ensure more responsible consumption and production methods. These were key elements of our DNA long before the SDGs arose. Because we have always aimed to run a business that minimises its societal and environmental impact. For example, did you know that we have been sorting our waste at the head office in Rynkeby for years or that our heat comes from a district heating plant right next door?
As a manufacturer, we are keenly aware that electricity consumption often has a large environmental impact. Therefore, we are proud to have reduced our electricity consumption by 50% in 2013, and we have been able to maintain this level ever since.
