At Mofreita, Sustainability is not a future goal, it is a daily practice, rooted in every gesture, decision and detail of our daily lives. Imagine that even the simple act of labeling the material can reflect our commitment to the environment.
In fact, here we believe that respect for nature begins with us, within our own carpentry shop, where we are all responsible for perpetuating sustainable habits.
Reuse, transform, value
In our factory, nothing is lost, everything is transformed (or gained a new purpose). In fact, the pieces that, for some reason, do not reach the final consumer gain new functions: they become furniture used by our workers, such as desks or tables and chairs in the dining area. Even office flooring comes fromreused materials– a way to extend the life of wood and reduce waste.
What’s left warms up
In winter, the carpentry is heated naturally, with biomass resulting from leftovers from production. Thus, a self-sustaining cycle is generated in which useless wood continues to contribute to the well-being and comfort of those who shape it.
Respecting the past, investing in the future
We believe that innovation and tradition go hand in hand. Therefore, we keep the machines purchased by the founder of the carpentry shop, with decades of history, in operation. Despite the investment in more modern machines and advanced technology, the original ones continue to fulfill their role with precision and quality. For this reason, we focus on maintenance and repair, avoiding unnecessary replacements.
A philosophy that is in every detail
More than a policy, at Mofreita, sustainability is a way of being. Every choice, from selecting local woods to reusing materials, reflects our commitment to creating with environmental awareness. Because, for us, respecting the environment is ensuring that each piece or project Mofreita carries a legacy of durability, authenticity and homage to Mother Nature.
