Ersta Hospital

Flokk's inclusion in the project played a significant role in achieving the sustainability goals. Emma Olbers worked closely with Flokk to ensure the furniture choices aligned with the hospital's values.

Flokk's extensive range of seating solutions includes many designs with Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) certifications, which enabled the designers to calculate the exact carbon footprint of the furniture and the materials used. This information allowed the project team to make informed decisions and prioritise low carbon emission options as well as chairs made with the best materials. The selected chairs are designed with a high proportion of recycled content, contributing to a circular economy and reducing the environmental impact of the hospital's interior furnishings.

The seating solutions, which comprised five different Flokk designs, were thoughtfully specified for various areas of the hospital. 156 RH Mereo chairs provided the backbone of the solution, offering high quality ergonomic support and comfort in various settings for staff who frequently have extended periods of sitting. HÅG Tion, with its agile and compact design, feature in various meeting and social spaces. Easily adjusted to multiple users, it offers comfort and support while taking up minimal space.

The HÅG Capisco Puls model chosen is made from recycled snow plough markers, not only providing is unique colour, but also adding strength to the sustainability profile of the design.
