The KÅSEBERGA collection

High vibes, low impact!

In celebration of World Oceans Day, here's the story of a special collection that connected sustainable living with an active lifestyle – inspired by surfers!

From the wave-riders to the toe dippers, the dog walkers to the sun worshippers: the KÅSEBERGA collection was made for everyone who loves the ocean and wants to look after it. Created together with the World Surf League (WSL), the collection's 26 products were made from renewable and recycled materials to help reduce the plastic waste that ends up in our oceans.

More waves, less waste

By working together, IKEA and the WSL hoped to inspire people to help fight plastic pollution, and choose renewable and recycled materials wherever possible. Watch to see more of how the KÅSEBERGA collection came to life.
