People do it every day. They buy things without thinking about where they come from or how they are made. Whether it's food, clothing or furniture, we often have no idea under what conditions things are produced, to what extent the environment is polluted, or what hidden pollutants are contained in a product.

We order cheap gadgets from China, buy tomatoes from Spain or beef from Argentina and get carried away buying brand-name 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 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 back 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 stores, DIY stores and furniture stores. But the sustainable extraction of tropical wood is an invention. To produce furniture from tropical wood, not only must the tropical rainforest be massively cleared, but long transport routes must be accepted.

With European materials and woods we are able to keep our transport routes as short as possible. We work together with carpenters and selected furniture producers in Europe. It is our concern to make an active contribution to environmental and climate protection and to make the production and processing to the finished piece of furniture as transparent as possible.
