Sustainability Week designpopup at Il Salotto
Saxen are officially launching the RefurbHub at the Sustainability Week #DesignPopUp in Il Salotto, Glasgow.
Tuesday 10th June to Thursday 12th June
the venue: Il Salotto
Sustainability Week at Il Salotto in Glasgow's vibrant Merchant City is the perfect time and place for Saxen to launch its newest initiative – the RefurbHub.
Il Salotto offers a welcoming space for creative professionals — a place for provocative conversations, new ideas and innovation. Its sustainable ethos and design-led philosophies resonate with the Saxen team. With a passion for innovative products and forward-thinking ideas, Saxen are excited to be part of this event.
Designed to facilitate specialised conversations, visitors will gain tailored insights into commercial space solutions. The event encourages a closer look at trends, challenges, and innovations, fostering a deeper understanding of the issues that drive decision-making and design choices.
more than just a space—it’s a home for creative professionals to come together, exchange ideas, and spark the conversations that drive real change.
the launch: RefurbHub
Saxen are celebrating the launch of RefurbHub.
We recognised that the traditional 'take-make-dispose' model is increasingly unsustainable, so we decided to make a tangible difference. Our new RefurbHub transforms the lifecycle of office furnishings and secures Saxen's position as a pioneer in diverse net-zero solutions.
Saxen's RefurbHub is now the largest refurbishment facility in Scotland, transforming the lifecycle of office furnishings and supplying refurbished office chairs, soft seating, and desking from high-end brands such as Herman Miller, Vitra, Humanscale, and Steelcase. In addition, we offer an in-house restoration service where we can revive your existing furnishings, keeping them out of landfill.
Visit our #DesignPopUp at Il Salotto from Tuesday 10th to Thursday 12th of June to discover how RefurbHub can revolutionise how you look at preloved furnishings and reinvent your commercial spaces.
Once considered one of Scotland's best-kept secrets, this initiative is set to propel Saxen into a unique position to the forefront of diverse net zero solutions in the UK.
