Sustainable Office Solutions: How Facility Management Companies Can Partner with Coggin for a Greener Future

In today's world, businesses are becoming increasingly conscious of the impact they have on the environment. Companies are looking for ways to reduce their carbon footprint, save on energy costs, and operate in a more sustainable manner. Facility management companies have a crucial role in this shift towards sustainability, as they are responsible for the day-to-day operations of buildings, ensuring that they are functional, safe, and environmentally friendly. In this regard, partnering with Coggin Sustainable Office Solutions can help facility management companies support their clients in achieving a sustainable future.


At Coggin Sustainable Office Solutions, we offer a range of services that can benefit facility management companies and their clients. Our focus is on promoting the reuse and recycling of office furniture and equipment, rather than adding to the waste stream. Our services include office furniture refurbishment, zero-landfill office clearance, and sustainable office supplies. By partnering with us, facility management companies can help their clients save money and reduce waste, while also contributing to a more sustainable future.


Office Furniture Refurbishment


One of the most significant sources of waste in office environments is furniture. As companies grow and evolve, they often update their furniture to keep up with changing trends and technology. However, this often means that perfectly good furniture is discarded and sent to the landfill. At Coggin Sustainable Office Solutions, we believe that there is a better way. Our office furniture refurbishment service offers a sustainable alternative to the disposal of furniture. By refurbishing existing furniture, we can extend the life of the products and save our clients money in the process. This service is particularly beneficial to facility management companies, as they can offer a cost-effective alternative to their clients while also promoting sustainability.


Zero-Landfill Office Clearance


When companies move or downsize, they often have a surplus of furniture and equipment that they need to dispose of. However, traditional disposal methods often result in a significant amount of waste going to the landfill. At Coggin Sustainable Office Solutions, we offer a zero-landfill office clearance service that helps companies dispose of their unwanted furniture and equipment in a sustainable manner. We work with our clients to identify items that can be reused, refurbished, or recycled, and we ensure that nothing goes to the landfill. By partnering with us, facility management companies can offer their clients a more sustainable way of disposing of their surplus furniture and equipment.


In conclusion, facility management companies have a critical role to play in promoting sustainability in the workplace. By partnering with Coggin Sustainable Office Solutions, facility management companies can offer their clients a range of sustainable office solutions, including office furniture refurbishment and zero-landfill office clearance. By working together, we can help companies reduce their waste, save money, and contribute to a more sustainable future.

Why Paying More Isn't Always Better: The Smart Choice of Refurbished Ergonomic Chairs

By Ida Gorecka • August 19, 2025
Refitting an office today means juggling a lot: tighter budgets, faster timelines, and pressure to deliver on ESG goals. And when it comes to ergonomic chairs, the one piece of furniture an office team relies on every day, many assume paying more for “new” automatically means better. But that’s no longer true. Refurbished ergonomic chairs offer the same comfort , durability , and support as new, backed by warranties , come with less cost and with far shorter lead times . For facilities and procurement teams, that means more budget freed up for other priorities, and fewer delays holding back your project. At Coggin SOS, we work with organisations that once assumed refurbished meant second-best. Until they saw the results. High-performance, fully warranted ergonomic chairs. Fast delivery. Circular outcomes they could actually report on. And savings of up to 80% compared to new (check out our case studies here ). In this article, you’ll learn what refurbished office chairs really offer in practice, why they’re becoming a preferred option for FM teams and procurement leads, and how your next fit-out or move could be both greener and smarter than you think. Thinking about your next office project? Contact our team and see how premium refurbished ergonomic chairs can give you comfort, savings, and sustainability in one.

Beyond Recycling: The Role of Office Furniture in a Truly Sustainable Economy

By Ida Gorecka • August 7, 2025
If you're here, you're probably managing a lot. A relocation, a refurbishment, or a growing ESG brief. Maybe you’re under pressure to meet sustainability targets, stay on budget, and deliver results your team and clients can actually see. And right now, office furniture might not be on your radar. But it should be. In most organisations, furniture is still treated as an afterthought. It’s functional, it’s bulky, and when it’s no longer needed, it’s often sent straight to landfill. But here’s the truth: when you start thinking of office furniture as a strategic asset within the circular economy , everything changes. For your budget . Your carbon reporting . Your project timelines . Your reputation . This article is for you if you’re tired of defaulting to skips. If you want smarter ways to meet ESG goals without blowing your budget. If you’re ready to make office sustainability a measurable advantage - not just a checkbox. We’ll show you just how much office furniture is wasted each year, what it’s really costing your business, and how the circular economy can apply directly to your projects. You’ll learn how organisations like yours are saving thousands, avoiding skips entirely, and turning unwanted furniture into reportable ESG wins - plus practical steps to get started today.

Why Buying Cheap Costs More: The Long-Term Value of Quality Refurbished Furniture

By Ida Gorecka • July 30, 2025
You’re in the middle of planning an office space. Budgets are tight. Lead times are short. It’s tempting to type “cheap office chairs” into your browser and find something that fits the spreadsheet. But here’s the problem: cheap furniture is rarely cheap in the long run . The market is saturated with budget desks, chairs, and storage that look good online, but fall apart in practice. And when they do, they cost more - more to replace, more to dispose of, more to fix (if that’s even possible), and more in lost time and productivity. It’s a vicious cycle that undermines your budget, timeline, and any potential ESG goals. According to WRAP , the UK disposes of over 200,000 tonnes of office furniture every year - much of it barely used. When furniture fails quickly, so does your investment. In a commercial setting, that failure shows up in missed deadlines, spiralling budgets, and sustainability goals slipping out of reach. So before you hit "order" on another bulk buy of flat-packed furniture, take a moment. In this article, you'll learn the hidden costs of cheap office furniture and why refurbished premium office furniture is the smarter alternative. If you're looking to reduce hassle, save money, and build a workspace that actually lasts, keep on reading. Need help getting started?
