Freedom Sustainability Actions

Ethical Timber Sourcing Policy

Freedom has implemented an Ethical Timber Sourcing Policy (ETSP), working closely with local and international suppliers with the goal of having all timber materials used in the production of furniture credibly and ethically sourced from legal and sustainable forest operations. This work is ongoing and our team at Freedom is continually reviewing our policies to ensure all goals are achieved.

Modern Slavery & Ethical Sourcing

All of our suppliers are required to sign a Modern Slavery Declaration, as we recognise the responsibility of operating in a transparent and ethical manner, in line with the Modern Slavery Act 2018. Our Modern Slavery statement can be viewed on the Australian Border Force Modern Slavery Register: https://modernslaveryregister.gov.au/statements/12474/
