At Yakety Yak, sustainability is a core part of our company\u2019s ethos and we design and manufacture our pods, desks and counters within a life-cycle framework. By employing Life Cycle Analysis, our designers consider the various stages of our products\u2019 lives, from manufacture to disposal, with the aim of reducing their overall environmental impact.<\/p>\n

5 reasons YAKETY YAK Service Desks are the sustainable choice…<\/h5>\n<\/div><\/div>

Manufactured mindfully<\/span><\/p>\n

We prioritise using materials, supply chains and manufacturing systems that have the lightest environmental impact possible. This includes assessing how materials are sourced and produced, as well as their potential to be recycled at the end of the service desk\u2019s life. As a benchmark for continued improvement, emissions for each desk are calculated and monitored against annual sales.<\/p>\n

Built to last<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

By using robust construction and quality components, (such as demountable steel frames, durable finishes and the world class LINAK actuator system), our service desks are built to withstand busy library and education environments and stay useful for many years.
