Sustainability at Movisi

Design that takes responsibility – lightweight, long-lasting and circular

For Movisi, sustainability is not a trend or an add-on. It is at the core of our design philosophy. From day one, we have been developing sustainable modular furniture that makes life easier for our customers while protecting the resources of our planet.

Our modules are made from a single material, require no screws, glues or tools and are fully recyclable. They are extremely lightweight, highly load-bearing and designed to stay in use for many years. Less effort, less material, fewer emissions – more impact.

Our approach: sustainability starts with the way we think

Truly sustainable furniture does not begin at the recycling stage – it starts with the idea. For every product we ask ourselves:

How little material is really necessary?
How can we make a piece of furniture last longer without making it heavier?
How can a single module fulfil countless different functions?
How can a system stay useful when people’s lives and needs change?

The result is a design principle that sounds disarmingly simple: One module. One material. Endless possibilities.

Less weight. Less CO₂. More freedom.

Our furniture is made from ARPRO® expanded polypropylene (EPP), a high-performance particle foam that is durable, fully recyclable and ideal for eco-friendly furniture applications. It consists of 95–98% air, which gives it unique sustainability benefits:

High load capacity – with minimal use of resources

EPP is impact-absorbing, dimensionally stable and long-lasting. This enables furniture that can be used for many years without losing performance or quality.

Extremely lightweight – less energy for transport

Low weight means less fuel consumption, fewer CO₂ emissions and easy handling for our customers – whether at home, in the office or at events.

Toxicologically safe & healthy for indoor spaces

The material is free from harmful substances and emissions, making it ideal for modern workplaces, homes, children’s rooms, offices and event spaces.

100% recyclable – real circularity

Products made from a single material can be fully returned to the recycling stream – without sorting effort and without loss of quality. This supports a circular design approach rather than a linear use-and-dispose model.

Modularity = sustainability

Our systems are designed to adapt over many years. Instead of replacing furniture, Movisi makes it easy to expand, downsize or completely reconfigure it.

Modules can be rearranged at any time.
Single elements can be replaced without discarding the whole piece.
No tools, no effort, no installation waste.
Long-term use instead of fast consumption.

This makes sustainability practical – and accessible for everyone.

Made in Germany – short distances, fair production

We manufacture exclusively in Germany. This guarantees:

short transport routes,
high environmental standards,
fair working conditions,
precise, consistent quality.

For us, sustainability means full transparency along the entire value chain.

Frequently asked questions about sustainability at Movisi

What makes Movisi furniture sustainable?

Movisi furniture is made from a single, recyclable material and is modular and extremely lightweight. This means less raw material, fewer emissions during transport and furniture that can be reused and reconfigured for many years instead of being replaced.

Are Movisi products fully recyclable?

Yes. Our modules are made from pure EPP (expanded polypropylene). This material is 100% recyclable and can be fully returned to the material cycle without loss of quality.

How long do the modules last?

EPP is extremely robust, shock-absorbing and dimensionally stable. Many of our customers have been using Movisi modules for more than ten years – without noticeable wear.

Why does Movisi manufacture in Germany?

We manufacture exclusively in Germany to ensure short transport routes, high environmental and quality standards and fair working conditions. This reduces emissions and provides maximum transparency.

Are the modules free from harmful substances?

Yes. Our material is toxicologically safe and emission-free. It is suitable for all indoor spaces, including children’s rooms, offices and other sensitive environments.
