Sustainability

The wooden frames for our furniture come from the Coburg region, while the hand-picked, exclusive velour that give our upholstered pieces their character come mainly from Italy, Germany and Belgium.

For ethical reasons, we do not use any animal products such as leather or down at all and make sure that at least 85% of the fabric is used in order to avoid waste.

Thanks to our production in Germany, at the Gensingen site, we have short delivery routes. This ensures a minimum of gray energy.

At our company site, we generate more electricity than we need thanks to our own photovoltaic system.

The choice of high-quality materials and expert craftsmanship during production results in products of the highest quality - and what lasts a long time is replaced less quickly.

Preserving values such as cohesion, respect and trust is important to us, as are fair employment and wages. This also includes open discourse and a constructive approach to different points of view.

We treat our employees, customers and partners as equals - we value friendliness and an informal approach. We are respectful, personal and welcoming in our cooperation and in our services.

Bretz sees itself as an internationally active brand and is aware of its special social and global responsibility. We therefore strive to make our business relationships as socially just and ecologically conscious as possible.

For example, we have voluntarily decided to implement risk management in accordance with the concept of the German Furniture Industry Association and the German Furniture Quality Association on the basis of the German Supply Chain Management Act (LkSG) in order to be able to identify and assess risks at an early stage.

This gives us the opportunity to discuss and implement appropriate measures as quickly as possible in order to minimize existing human rights and/or environmental risks in our own business area and beyond, together with all partners, and to prevent them in the future.
