Our Journey to Sustainability: How Get Laid Beds is Leading the Way

By Katie 25 October 2024

At Get Laid Beds, sustainability isn’t just a buzzword - it’s at the heart of everything we do. From the first cut of wood to the last coat of finish, every bed we craft tells a story of mindful choices and responsible craftsmanship. 

As we celebrate Recycling Week, we want to take a moment to share our sustainability story with you, and offer a little teaser for a product we’re very excited to launch soon.

Sustainability Starts with Sourcing 

When we founded Get Laid Beds, we knew we wanted to create not just beautiful, handcrafted beds but beds that were made to last - without costing the Earth. That’s why we carefully select sustainably sourced timber for each and every bed frame. By partnering with suppliers who share our values, we ensure that the wood we use comes from responsibly managed forests, reducing the impact on the environment while supporting reforestation efforts.

Our beds are designed to be durable, timeless, and customisable, meaning they can stay with you for years to come. In a world where fast furniture often ends up in landfills, we are dedicated to crafting timeless pieces, designed and built to last.

Handcrafted with Care

Each bed we produce is handmade to order by skilled craftsmen. This ensures that nothing goes to waste, and it allows us to keep production lean and efficient. We’re able to minimise offcuts and leftovers, reducing the amount of waste we generate in the process. And any waste we do produce? It’s recycled wherever possible.

Reducing Waste, Increasing Impact

As part of Recycling Week, we’d like to highlight just how important it is to think about the lifecycle of the materials we use. Recycling wood not only saves trees but also reduces the need for energy-intensive production processes. We encourage our customers to consider recycling or repurposing old furniture instead of throwing it away. There’s beauty in breathing new life into what once was, and we aim to inspire that ethos with every bed we make.

Coming Soon: Our Most Eco-Friendly Beds Yet!

We’ve taken sustainability seriously from day one, but we’re always looking for new ways to innovate and improve. That’s why we’re thrilled to offer a little sneak peek at something we’ve been working on behind the scenes. Our new Eco Beds are on the horizon - crafted and designed with the smallest possible environmental footprint in mind. We don’t want to give away too much just yet, but trust us - it’s going to be a game-changer for eco-conscious sleepers. Stay tuned for more details in the coming weeks!

What You Can Do This Recycling Week

Sustainability is a collective effort, and everyone has a role to play. As we celebrate Recycling Week, consider what steps you can take to reduce your environmental impact. Whether it’s recycling old materials, investing in sustainable products, or simply rethinking your purchasing habits, small changes can add up to big results.

At Get Laid Beds, we’re committed to helping you make those changes, starting with the furniture you sleep on every night. Our focus on sustainability and quality craftsmanship means you can rest easy knowing you’re making a choice that’s better for the planet.

The Future of Sleep, Sustainable by Design

Our mission has always been to create beds that last, but we’re equally committed to ensuring that the planet lasts for future generations too. By making conscious decisions about the materials we use and the way we produce our beds, we hope to inspire others in the industry to follow suit. With the launch of our upcoming eco-bed, we’re taking another big step in that direction.

Stay tuned for more updates on our latest sustainable innovation, and in the meantime, why not take a moment to explore our existing range of responsibly made beds? Every bed tells a story - and we’re proud to be part of yours.

Happy Recycling Week from everyone at Get Laid Beds! Together, we can build a more sustainable future - one bed at a time.
