How can I have a sustainable kitchen tailored to me?
Whether you're looking for a complete, customisable kitchen system or a simpler, functional solution you can install in a single day, at IKEA you'll find modular systems offering endless design possibilities — all tailored to your lifestyle, space, and budget.
At IKEA, we believe a functional kitchen can also be a more sustainable one. That’s why we’re committed to developing affordable solutions that are resource- and energy-efficient. By 2030, we aim to use only renewable or recycled materials and offer practical ways to extend the life of our products.
In addition to kitchen structures, here are some products that can help make your kitchen more sustainable:
-
Water-saving mixer taps, like GLYPEN or ÄLMAREN, which help reduce water consumption.
-
Recycling and waste sorting bins, like the HÅLLBAR series, which make managing household waste easier.
-
Energy-efficient appliances, such as IKEA ovens and refrigerators with higher energy ratings.
-
LED lighting, like SKYDRAG strips, which consume less energy and create a cosy atmosphere.
-
Smart drawer and cabinet organisation, with solutions like VARIERA, so everything has its place and waste is reduced.
👉 Can I return any materials left over from assembling my kitchen?
Yes, you can return unused items, provided they are in good condition and within the return period. Simply take them to your nearest IKEA store, along with your receipt or proof of purchase. We will be happy to help you close the loop ♻️
At IKEA, we want to support your journey toward a more sustainable home — starting with the kitchen.
