As the world transitions toward net-zero emissions, sustainable office planning has become a vital component of ESG implementation. Corporate sustainability has evolved from an optional advantage into a core indicator of brand competitiveness.
With years of expertise in the workspace sector, AURORA Furniture has become the only furniture brand selected this year to receive the 2025 TCSA (Taiwan Corporate Sustainability Awards) — Circular Economy Leadership Award. This recognition highlights AURORA’s leadership in ESG furniture development, circular economy practices, and green workspace planning, marking a significant milestone in leading the industry toward a low-carbon future.

Facing the net-zero trend, AURORA Furniture has pioneered the Furniture as a Service (FaaS) business model, shifting the focus from one-time sales to full-lifecycle circular management.
The core of FaaS lies in establishing a comprehensive "closed-loop." Through modular circular design, parts are highly interchangeable. Combined with a digitalized repair request system and professional maintenance, this significantly extends product lifespans and assists clients with precise repairs or partial updates during relocations. At the end of a product's life, materials are reintegrated into the production chain via a recycling and remanufacturing mechanism. Through FaaS, AURORA successfully shifts furniture value from "single-use" to "multi-cycle," creating a more resilient sustainable asset management solution.
The Activa Agile Office Solution meets the needs of various business scales and industries through its highly flexible design.Green Design Practices: Giving New Life to Recycled Resources
In terms of product innovation, AURORA Furniture continues to drive the R&D of sustainable materials, strengthening the application of recycled resources:
- Recycled PET Felt：Used in CoLink Box collaborative furniture; offers excellent acoustical performance while reducing the use of virgin plastics.
- Coffee Ground Recycled Boards：Transforms daily waste into 100% coffee ground recycled boards, bringing a carbon-reduction mindset to the workspace.
- Ocean-bound Plastic Fiber：Extracts fibers from ocean waste to create the Puffy Sofa series, turning environmental burdens into sustainable products.
AURORA is also the only furniture company in Taiwan to proactively publish a Sustainability Report, emphasizing transparent governance. By integrating green design, prefabricated renovation, IoT spatial management, and circular supply chains, AURORA reduces renovation waste at the source, serving as a model for the circular economy.

AURORA will continue to deepen its "NEXt WORK" solutions and utilize the Activa Agile Office concept to meet diverse needs across five modes: "Focus, Collaboration, Learning, Socialization, and Relaxation." Through cross-domain cooperation, we aim to build a "Healthy, Efficient, and Sustainable" next-generation office ecosystem, contributing core value to a resilient future for the industry.
