Our concept is simple: Well-designed, affordable, sustainable products.

We always input as many ecodesign strategies into our products and projects as possible. Our driving design methodology is what we call 'econnovation' - ecologic economic innovation.

We vow to continually add new or enhance and improve old experiences to work towards a sustainable future for the planet. Design is our vehicle for knowledge, imagination is our fuel to no end.

Knoend
Knoend is an ecodesign company founded on principles of sustainability and innovation. Knoend develops products that incorporate the full life cycle of materials. When a product is no longer useful, many times it is simply discarded. By using materials that are biodegradable, recyclable, or reusable, Knoends designs will lessen landfill waste. Knoend creates products that are environmentally responsible, always having that ‘next cycle’ in mind.

Knoends products incorporate sustainable technologies and materials. We are making every effort to ensure our products and manufacturing methods are an environmental improvement to the status quo. We will never be satisfied with our initial efforts and will constantly strive to improve our products in subsequent editions.

We will always provide the best possible value to our customers who care about environmental responsibility.

There are few products today that look beyond delivery to the consumer market. With few exceptions, most products are developed only to the point of sale. Knoends goal is to change the consumer product culture in a proactive way that will reduce manufacturing and shipping waste and provide eco-friendly solutions that extend the traditional dead-end product life-cycle. Knoend is dedicated to bringing accessible, affordable ecodesign to eco-conscious customers.

Forest Stewardship Council: What is it?
Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) is a non-profit organization devoted to encouraging the responsible management of the world’s forests. FSC sets high standards that ensure forestry is practiced in an environmentally responsible, socially beneficial, and economically viable way.


Forest Stewardship Council: Wood & Paper Industry
Even though technologies for refining post consumer pulp have improved, virgin fiber still represents a significant requirement in paper production. According to the FSC, only 35% of current consumption is met by using recycled fiber; in addition, approximately 25% of recovered fiber is exported out of US markets.

Forest Stewardship Council: Certification
The intent of the FSC system is to shift the market to eliminate habitat destruction, water pollution, displacement of indigenous peoples and violence against people and wildlife that often accompanies logging.
