Office Furniture Case Studies
Coggin SOS is a Lancashire office furniture business that refurbishes, supplies and clears office furniture for organisations across the UK. These are the projects it can show its own figures for.
The proof standard. Every study here is a completed project with a named client. Item counts come from our invoices. Where a project carries a saving or a carbon figure it is the figure on the savings certificate issued to the client, and carbon is an estimated net saving against buying new. A project with no certificate shows its count only.

About these figures
Do we get these figures for our own project?
Yes. Every Coggin SOS project comes with a savings statement showing items kept in use, the saving against buying new and the estimated carbon saving, drawn from our item-level records.
Are the figures audited?
They are our own figures from our own records, not third-party audited. Savings are against a like for like new specification. Carbon is an estimated net saving against buying new, on the basis explained on our carbon page.
Can you name our organisation?
Only with your written permission. Every study here was published with the client's agreement on the name, the figures and the logo.
