Local furniture makers urged to adopt green practices

More furniture manufacturers in Singapore will be encouraged to adopt green practices with the aim of being awarded green certifications.

This is part of a three-year plan by the Singapore Furniture Industries Council (SFIC) and Singapore Environment Council (SEC) with the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).

Under the MOU, SFIC and SEC will work together to improve furniture manufacturers’ expertise in environmental sustainability.
