At Nola, we continue to expand the number of EPDs across our product range. In addition to popular products like Luma, Four Seasons, and the Kajen sun lounger, the Hjorthagen and Parco furniture series are now also certified. You can find the documents for download in the right column on each product page.
By providing EPDs for our products, we aim to make it clearer and easier to specify and use Nola’s range in projects that require high sustainability standards. EPDs play a central role in sustainable building by detailing the environmental impact of materials and products. This information is crucial for achieving leading environmental certifications like LEED or BREEAM, which in turn can be vital for a project's success—and ultimately, for the planet.
What is an EPD?
An EPD, or Environmental Product Declaration, is an environmental certification that provides detailed information about a product’s environmental impact throughout its entire lifecycle. For us at Nola, this means documenting and reporting on a product’s environmental effects from raw material extraction through production and use, to waste management or recycling. By doing this, Nola contributes to more transparent and informed choices in the building process.
Since the late 1980s, Nola has been a regular at Stockholm Furniture Fair. For us, it’s more than just a tradition – it’s a key part of our year. We look forward to being there again in 2025 and hope to see you there too.
The Malmö City Urban Development Award 2024 goes to Hyllievång Park. A big round of applause to the City of Malmö’s Property and Streets Department and the landscape architects at Plot Studio. We are proud to have provided the Four Seasons parasols and the Gard long-table furniture system for this park, which truly exudes a playful and inviting atmosphere.
In May, it was confirmed that Nola has been selected as a supplier for the nationwide framework agreement with HBV within Park and Urban Environment. The agreement runs until April 7, 2026, with an option for a 24-month extension. The agreement applies to the Swedish market.
With buds blooming, sunshine, and even the recent interest rate cut, there are plenty of reasons to feel optimistic. Let's raise a glass to the good things, celebrate our unity, and look forward to the journey ahead.
