level defines quantifiable performance standards for the areas of materials, energy and the environment, human and ecosystem health, and social responsibility to address environmental and social elements of product manufacture across the supply chain. Purchasing products that are level certified ensures that they were made in an ethical and responsible manner by a reputable producer. The American National Standards Institute developed the level designation, which is given to office furniture products that satisfy a number of requirements of the demanding, multi-attribute ANSI/BIFMA Furniture Sustainability Standard. An authorised third-party certification authority must validate your achievement before you can earn the level mark. BIFMA sponsors the development and refinement of standards, educates on their importance and application, and translates their necessary complexity into more easily understood and implemented formats. We promote sustainability throughout the life cycle of commercial furniture.
