Clic Achieves AFRDI Green and AFRDI Blue Certifications

August 8, 2024

We are proud to announce that Clic has received both AFRDI Green and AFRDI Blue certifications. This dual recognition underscores our unwavering commitment to quality, sustainability, and excellence in our furniture.

What is AFRDI Green? 

AFRDI Green (Australasian Furnishing Research and Development Institute) evaluates products on a comprehensive range of sustainability criteria, including environmental impact, resource efficiency, and recyclability. This requires rigorous testing and evaluation processes, involving assessments of the materials used, emissions, and manufacturing processes. 

Successfully meeting the requirements of AFRDI 150:2012 Sustainability Standard - Commercial Furniture and achieving AFRDI Green certification is a testament to our dedication to producing environmentally responsible products. It also ensures that our products are compliant with the Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) and Formaldehyde Minimisation credits in Green Star rating tools.

What is AFRDI Blue? 

AFRDI Blue certification focuses on product durability. The process requires extensive testing for general safety, strength, durability, and stability, ensuring that our furniture meets stringent performance criteria and highest standards of functionality and longevity, offering our customers with products they can trust for years to come.

Our Commitment to Sustainability

We are proud to offer furniture that not only exemplifies exceptional quality but also highlights our ongoing efforts to integrate sustainable practices into our product development and manufacturing process.
