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.
