Circular Office Furniture for LEED & BREEAM Projects

Architects, facility managers and developers face tightening requirements: LEED v4, BREEAM and CSRD now demand reliable, verified environmental data for every procurement decision — office furniture included. The R.U.M. chair by Wehlers, designed by C.F. Møller Architects and made in Denmark, pairs timeless Scandinavian design with a data foundation your sustainability team can use on day one.

Why the R.U.M. chair is built for certified building projects

Every R.U.M. chair contains 0% virgin material and is 100% circular. It turns recovered waste into a high-performance, durable seat — documented and traceable — so specifying it earns credits instead of raising questions in your assessment.

Verified EPD & PEF — audit-ready data for your CSRD Scope 3

As a B Corp-certified manufacturer, we hand you a verified EPD (Environmental Product Declaration) and PEF certification. The ESG and carbon-footprint data drops straight into your CSRD Scope 3 reporting and satisfies LEED, BREEAM, DGNB and BNB requirements.

15.1 kg CO₂e: the lowest footprint in its class

Each chair has a carbon footprint of just 15.1 kg CO₂e — roughly 65 kg of CO₂ saved per chair versus an average office chair. Not a marketing claim: an independently verified figure.

100% take-back guarantee & design for disassembly

Thanks to design for disassembly, every chair separates fully into its materials, and our 100% take-back guarantee ensures none of it reaches landfill — closing the loop for any LEED or BREEAM end-of-life credit.

Choose by material origin

We organise the collection by where the raw material comes from:

• Fisherman's Green — recovered fishing nets and ocean waste
• Keyboard Black — recycled e-waste (IT scrap)
• Pharma Blue — recycled medical waste such as injection pens

All available across the R.U.M. collection: Original, Armrest, Sledge, Barstool and Wheels.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Wehlers EPD valid for LEED v4 credits?
Yes. Our verified EPD provides the product-level data LEED v4 (Building Product Disclosure and Optimization) and BREEAM require for furniture.

What is the carbon footprint of a R.U.M. chair?
From 15.1 kg CO₂e per chair — around 65 kg lower than an average office chair.

How does the take-back guarantee work?
At end of life we take every chair back at no cost and return the materials fully to the loop — documented for your sustainability reporting.
