Circular System

At Koleksiyon, sustainability isn’t just a destination—it’s an ongoing journey of improvement and responsibility.We actively seek ways to minimise our environmental impact, conserve natural resources, and make positive contributions to the communities we serve. Embracing circular economy principles and fostering environmental stewardship, we work towards a more sustainable future for generations to come.

Operating with a circular mindset, we prioritise transformation and reuse over traditional linear production models. Our commitment to preserving resources, protecting the environment, and reducing waste and energy consumption spans across our entire value chain. Sustainable design is foundational to our creative processes and business operations. We meticulously select eco-friendly materials, partner with like-minded suppliers, and champion a circular design approach from inception. Through a focus on quality, durability, and longevity, we actively promote mindful consumption and waste reduction.

Our sustainability efforts extend beyond environmental impact. We consider the entire ecosystem, including people, industry, nature, and community, as vital components of lasting progress. This holistic outlook influences every decision we make, from collaborations and material choices to product development and co-created projects.

For us, social responsibility is far more than a standalone initiative—it’s a core value woven into our fabric. Globally, we advocate for diversity, inclusivity, and ethical labour practices, supporting environments where individuals can thrive. Through partnerships with local organisations, we champion education, health, and social welfare, driving positive change in every community we touch. Our relentless pursuit of sustainable design compels us to explore new materials, technologies, and processes. By collaborating with a global community of visionaries, we aim to inspire a movement towards a more equitable world, where design innovation aligns seamlessly with environmental preservation and social progress.

Inspired by the theory of collective consciousness, we believe in the power of collective action for positive change. Every conscious choice contributes to our shared vision of a better world, driving us to continually evolve and innovate in sustainability and social responsibility.

A cultural narrative underlined by environmental consciousness and social responsibility.

Koleksiyon’s commitment to sustainability and reducing our environmental impact is resolute. Concrete steps are being taken to conserve resources and decrease energy consumption across our entire value chain. Embracing green energy is pivotal in these efforts, harnessing renewable resources like solar power to fuel our operations and minimise the carbon footprint. Our investment in clean energy technologies underscores our vision for a greener, more sustainable future.

A significant initiative undertaken is the transition to renewable energy sources. Our goal is to produce 3,250,000 kWh of electricity annually through a photovoltaic solar energy system. Strategically placed on the expansive 20,000 m2 roof of our Tekirdağ factory, this system with an installed capacity of 1,980 kWe exemplifies our dedication to sustainable practices. These solar panels now fully power our production facility, marking a major milestone in our sustainability journey.

This shift to clean energy has already taken place, aligning with our aim to reduce our carbon footprint, conserve natural resources, and contribute to a cleaner, sustainable future. The intensified efforts and investment in clean energy solutions signify our proactive stance towards an environmentally responsible business model. It’s not just about words; it’s about tangible action, making a positive impact on our planet and future generations.

Koleksiyon’s design philosophy is rooted in these principles, promoting designs that adapt to diverse needs in home, work, and play. Engaging with artists and designers worldwide, we create timeless, meaningful designs that serve the industry and enrich life. In this context, “Refusal of Solid” offers designers guidance for navigating modern challenges. It embraces design as a collaborative effort where users drive innovation by shaping solutions that meet their needs.

With this transition, Koleksiyon is leading the way in sustainable business practices. The focus remains on continual improvement, exploring innovative solutions, and fostering a culture of environmental stewardship. By adopting renewable energy sources, we set a precedent for sustainable manufacturing and underscore our commitment to global sustainability goals. The shift to renewable energy sources represents just one of many steps we are set to take in the effort to safeguard the wellbeing of our planet and its precious resources. It highlights our dedication to preserving the environment and advocating for a world where sustainability is not an option, but rather, the only way to move ahead.

“Koleksiyon is a social responsibility project within itself.”

We are committed to crafting designs that exhibit flexibility, seamlessly adjusting to changing contexts while minimising our social and environmental footprint. Through circular processes and sustainable practices, we aim to uplift every facet of life with the products we create, the projects we undertake, and the spaces we design. Our ultimate objective is to contribute to a sustainable future where life continues to thrive for generations to come.
