The Luxmy Group has been awarded with a number of green certification and is dedicated to environmentally sustainable practices to ensure the health and well being of staff, clients, end users and the planet. Just some of these practices include:

Our GECA certification can be found here and ISO 14001 here.

ISO 14001
Environmental Management Standard

This internationally recognised standard specifies a process for the control and the continuous improvement of an organisation’s environmental performance.

ISO 14001 is an international standard developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) through dedicated technical committees representing approximately 150 countries around the world. Its purpose is to enable an organization of any type or size to develop and implement a policy committing it to prevention of pollution, compliance with legal and other requirements, and continual improvement.

The realization of this commitment will be a management system that recognizes and manages the primary environmental issues through awareness and assessment of applicable legal requirements, objectives for improvement, assignment of responsibilities, competent personnel, communications, procedures, controls and monitoring, emergency response capability, self correction and assessment, and internal reviews. These processes are to be based on the Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle.

AFS
Australian Forestry Standard Chain Of Custody Certification

We have an AFS Chain Of Custody Certification. As we are a manufacturer of timber based products this was a necessary move. This provides our customers with an assurance that the wood or timber based product specified for a fit out has been sourced from a sustainably managed forest and tracked through the supply chain to ensure it ‘maintains an unbroken chain of custody’ (as per the requirements of the  certification).

There is an annual audit done to retain certification so we are committed in the long run to ensure that we act responsibly with where we source our material and how this is treated throughout the supply chain.

Customers must specify their Chain of Custody requirements at the time of quotation and order to ensure the entire order process is tracked to meet requirements.

GECA
Good Environmental Choice Australia

The Good Environmental Choice Australia Ecolabel certification scheme is Australia’s leading environmental certification program. GECA’s Ecolabel trade mark indicates the environmental performance of a product has been certified from multi- criteria perspective. Products that carry the Ecolabel trade mark are certified environmentally preferable by GECA. Select products has been independently certified as meeting the requirements of Good Environmental Choice Australia Furniture, Fittings, Foam and Mattresses (Level A) - FFFMv3.1-2017 or Panel Boards (GECA 04-2011 v2i) Standards.
