People do it every day. They buy things without thinking about the origin or manufacture of the products. Whether it's food, clothing or furniture, we often have no idea about the conditions under which things are produced, the extent to which they pollute the environment or what hidden harmful substances are contained in a product.

We order cheap gadgets from China, buy tomatoes from Spain or beef from Argentina and are tempted to buy branded clothes that are produced under the worst conditions in Cambodia or India.

We want to change that. We at Livom know: The good is so close. The world is worth fighting for. We realize that we can't save the world or change everyone's buying habits. But we can take a step in the right direction and bring you closer to the beauty and exclusivity of local materials. That's why Livom uses oak, beech, spruce or larch instead of tropical woods.

Today, you can find a huge selection of tropical woods bearing a sustainability seal in specialist shops, DIY stores and furniture stores. However, the sustainable extraction of tropical wood is an invention. In order to produce furniture from tropical wood, not only must the tropical rainforest be cleared on a massive scale, but long transportation routes must also be accepted.

By using European materials and woods, we are able to keep our transportation routes as short as possible. We work with carpenters and selected furniture manufacturers in Europe. It is important to us to make an active contribution to environmental and climate protection and to make the production and processing of the finished piece of furniture as transparent as possible.
