Commitments
GUARANTEE DURABILITY
At Ibride, each creation is designed to stand the test of time and remain by your side. Our furniture, assembled without glue or welding, allows each component to be replaced individually. Should an accident occur, our workshop will support you with care to find the most appropriate solution: repair, replacement of a specific part, or adaptation according to the components still available.
Doubs, Franche-Comté
PRODUCE LOCALLY
Most of our products are manufactured in-house in our workshops near Besançon. Packaging subcontracted to local partners. Sourcing of materials and components in our region.
LES IMPARFAITS
From the creation process to the sale, some Ibride pieces have a story that stands out from the rest of the collection. This is the case for objects exhibited at trade shows, prototypes, end-of-series pieces or even those with a slight flaw. While our commitment to quality and display may have led to some products being put aside, we now want to give them a second life in a different way. We are opening a collection of second choice products at 30% off, accessible to a wider clientele and linked to today's environmental issues.
Subcontracting to ESATs
SUPPORTING SOCIAL INTEGRATION
ESATs (Établissements de Service d'Aide par le Travail) are structures that offer people with disabilities the opportunity to work while receiving medical, social and educational support in a protected environment. In the Doubs region, Ibride has chosen to work with local ESATs to subcontract certain production activities:
- The ESAT d'Ornans supports us in cutting, quality control and packaging the trays for the Galerie de Portraits Collection and Portraits Collector.
- ESAT Pontarlier, for cutting, quality control and packaging of furniture.
Commitment
USE LESS AND BETTER
Since 2019, Make Friday Green Again has established itself as a benchmark collective for brands not participating in “Black Friday” at the end of November. It encourages the re-establishment of healthier consumption patterns to combat climate change.
With this in mind, Ibride has decided to get involved by supporting this initiative and encouraging its customers to take a more responsible approach to shopping at this time of year, giving preference to sustainable, eco-friendly products. By working together, we can all contribute to a more sustainable future and preserve our planet for future generations.
