Our sustainability - LIL Ethical Sustainability Standards
WHEN LESS IS MORE
Preserving the world we live in
LESS stands for LIL Ethical Sustainability Standards. It is our approach in terms of sustainability and ethics and our way on how to conduct our business:
GIVING BACK TO SOCIETY AND LOCAL COMMUNITIES
LIL donates a stable percentage of its profits to NGOs to create a better World. With their purchases, our customers can decide where we will make our donation amongst the NGOs we support
COMMITTING TO DO THE RIGHT THING
LIL is on track to gain a full B certification to ensure its business is solidly grounded on sustainable roots. This certification is awarded only to companies with the highest social, sustainability, environmental and accountability standards
CELEBRATING LIFE BY RESPECTING HUMAN RIGHTS, LABOUR PRACTICES, HEALTH & SAFETY
Our customers can be sure that none of our collaborators are left behind in the making of our products. Everyone inside and outside of our organization has to abide to the standards and code-of-conduct we set
ADVOCATING FOR DIVERSITY AND NOT TOLERATING DISCRIMINATIONS
Our own and our partner's workplaces are free from harassment and discriminations: also, our employees' satisfaction is a top priority for us
RESPECTING AND PROTECTING NATURE
a) LIL uses only wood that does not come from virgin forests; b) LIL promotes circular economy with its fabrics made from recycled materials generating energy and emissions savings of up to 47%; c) LIL uses only vegan leather to ensure cruelty free products; d) LIL targets to be carbon negative by 2025
PROTECTING LOCAL ITALIAN SUPPLIERS AND CRAFTSMEN
LIL work only with suppliers and local artisans whose craftmanship in wood carving have been passed down from one generation to another. All our products are 100% Made in Italy leveraging these skills built over generations and preserving them for the future: some of our products are handmade, following this carving tradition which makes them unique pieces
